I noticed you didn't use a hammer, to compact the clay. I though that was required, to get the clay nice and smooth. Anyways, I just recently started sandcasting. When I pound the delft clay into the mold with a hammer, the clay "splits" and it's not where I'm hammering. I'm putting some decent pressure when hammering, but I'm not "bashing" it. Do you have any idea what could be wrong? It did that too, the first time opened up the bag of clay. Thanks.
Love the finished product! I have a suggestion though.. you should reface your anvil and give it a mirror polish, or as close as you can get. This will help the finished product have a much better shine after flattening 🤙🏻I’m a blacksmith so it’s a bit hard to see an anvil that coarse and rusty
You bave to add solder to the jiont, the ring may bend easily and will cuuase premature fialure. Also thay jiont doesnt look good, try soldering it and placing a think copper sheet over the soldered gap, it will remian copper colored and be much stronger
Die Kupferarbeiten sind nur zum üben da um silber nicht zu verschwenden da es günstig ist und sich ähnlich verhält man kann nachträglich natürlich galvanisch behandeln und beschichten der ganze Modeschmuck besteht aus Kupfer oder wird mit Kupfer und dann mit anderen Metallen beschichtet Aber zu meiner Frage wie bist du auf meine Namen gekommen den steht nirgends 😄???
