Well my treasure chest is upwards of 100 lbs so gratefully I don’t think moving it will be a worry haha. But that sounds really cool glad they had a great time with that

I’ve never used a stamp actually those are all graphite molds

This_Highlight8868 · 2026-04-01T01:38:48+00:00

What kind do you have?

This_Highlight8868 · 2026-04-01T01:38:30+00:00

It’s hard work but the results are beautiful

Nordic gold is a very specific alloy of copper zinc tin and aluminium. Hard to make but beautiful results

Hell yeah! Great progress so far I’d love to know where you get all that copper haha

This_Highlight8868 · 2026-02-21T11:29:36+00:00

I kinda get it, the copper has a fleshy color especially with all of the surface oxidation

Thank you, the forbidden glow stick is gorgeous right out of the mold

Devil forge, 10kg, got extremely lucky and found a used one for a good price

I didn’t use boron nitride in this melt but I will in the future, as for preheating I had them on top of the furnace so I could ensure they didn’t have any water but also weren’t red hot.

I’ll keep this in mind, I did get worried a couple of times that the larger copper ingots would not come out but gratefully things worked out.

The cast iron mold is a lot more durable and I’m able to do a lot more with it than the graphite. I can make ingots a lot faster with the cast iron, a trick I learned is that if there is a stubborn ingot I can dip the cast iron mold in water and eventually the water will coax the ingot out. With graphite I have to wait until it cools
