Hello everyone! In today's video I decided to sand cast a miniature bronze cannon! This has been a project I've been putting off for quite some time. I 3d printed the parts last year!
Over the last few weeks I've been making aluminum bronze ingots in anticipation of getting this project done once and for all. I start off the video making the sand mold. Mold making can be intricate work. Not my favorite thing to do, but it is necessary to get the job done.
Once the mold is made, I fire up the Devil Forge furnace and start melting down 4 ingots. While the metal is heating up, I decide to try my luck in my slot machine. Did I win or did I lose?
After the bronze is completely melted, I skim off the slag and then proceed to pour that liquid goodness into the sand mold. It's been awhile since I casted in sand and I had forgotten how much it stinks! After what seemed like forever, I finally removed the cannon, did the quench and cleaned it up.
DISCLAIMER: This cannon is not functional by any means.
If you like metal casting, metal scrapping, watching metal melt or just anything about scrap metal, please feel free to subscribe to my channel. I use the proceeds from the ad revenue to upgrade and purchase equipment needed for the channel. Metal casting can get quite expensive but thankfully I do not have to buy the metal that I am melting (like some other channels do)
Feel free to share my video anywhere and everywhere. Sharing equals more views which equals more revenue. I'm not trying to get rich but I am trying to upgrade equipment without having to dig into my wallet. I'd love to purchase a second camera for better angles.
Anyways, I'm rambling on like I tend to do hahaha. Please give me a thumbs up if you think the video is worthy.
Thanks for watching and happy scrapping, casting and stacking!
