In this video I will be using the lost PLA method to turn a 3d print into an awesome solid brass casting. I started by printing the model on my 3d printer and then coated it with a ceramic material. I then fired the shell in my kiln and then poured brass into the shell. This is similar to the lost wax casting process.

I did something similar in high school metal shop. It was called “Lost Wax” and it’s where I got into crafting jewelry from expensive metals and gems. One of my projects got second place in the California state fair back in 2002! Never heard of this process, sort of inspires me to get back into it!

@@robinson-foundry I'm really surprised that the sand molds can hold so much details (like bolt threads) when you pour heavy molten metal into the mold. How do the sand grains not move? With the ceramic mold, I was thinking about carbon fibre molds, where you use a coating that makes it easy to separate the part from the mold once the glue sets. Could you not spray the insides of the mold with something right before you pour? Possibly not vinegar? 🤔 Enjoying your vids..

Great results dude! Have you not tried clearing the shell off using a jar in a ultrasonic cleaner? If you put the model in the jar/container, and fill it with something that'll dissolve the shell, and chuck that to float in an ultrasonic, it should come off easy. Doing it in a jar/container is to keep it from getting loads of shell bits on the bottom of the ultrasonic which would impact its performance. You can drain off the liquid and dump the shell bits somewhere, then refil the drained liquid back in, if it's too full of bits to be effective

@chaoseclipse0121
@chaoseclipse0121 2 года назад
You should consider getting a Needlegun to help make breaking the ceramic shells go a lot easier. It'll especially help break the ceramic shells apart when you have thick ceramic fills like when you did your bronze measuring cube, that way it'll reduce how much time you'll use your Pressure Washer or Sandblaster. Just remember to start gentle and only apply gradual pressure with the Needlegun until the shell starts breaking to minimize the needles impacting your castings.

Love your videos, I've experimented with lost PLA casting using investment plaster and colored PLA with poor results because it left ash in the mold. I'll try the black Overture PLA and see if that works, it may save the very big step of making a silicone rubber mold for the wax replicas. The ceramic shell process looks like a better fit for what I'm trying to do, which is digitally sculpting and 3D scanning human figures and casting them in Bronze.

Another awesome video. I am Still waiting on one on how your built your lifting and pouring tongs. I now have a 10KG Castmaster furnace, sand, safety wear, a 10KG and 4KG crucible and a lot of aluminum to melt. The tongs I have I do not feel safe to lift the 10KG crucible with. I do have enough steel to make a set of large tongs with but finding help online on how to build them is pretty limited. The set you made look perfect. I'm sure you would get a lot of looks and likes if you were to make a video on how you built them.

It did turn out great 👌 but I tend to eliminate the print lines in mine. Have you tried using 3d printer castable resin and uv lamp? One or max 2 layers of it should be enough and it is fairly easy to use this way - just dip like in slurry, wait till exsess dips out and then use a uv lamp to harden the resin. I also noticed a new bucket od Suspenda Slurry. A lot of new projects are about to come? 🤔 cant wait because all of your projects are awesome ☺️ At this time I am preperaring for another try with Death Trooper hollowed one. It is a big print - 3days 😳 we will see how it will turn out. And a lot of my projects are still ongoing but not finished. All is recorded, still needs editing.
@jeffjefferson2676
@jeffjefferson2676 2 года назад
Really well done! It looks like you perfected the casting with the suspenda slurry and sand. The resolution of 3d printing is not going to get any better probably. But it is super zoomed in. Maybe an 8k 3d printer will be better. But it will cost. I saw the phrozen 8k 3d printer throws out good prints.. Until i am actually going to produce 3D stuff i am not going to buy anything, while the technology rapidly advances. So better stuff for lower prices in the future more than likely. Keep it up!

"See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" is a common phrase, usually used to describe someone who doesn't want to be involved in a situation, or who is turning a willful blind eye to an evil act that they are involved in. The saying is typically associated with three wise monkeys (one covering his eyes, one covering his ears, and the other covering his mouth). It is therefore believed that the saying may have its origin in a 17th century temple in Japan. Many scholars believe the monkeys carved as a visual representation of the religious principle, "If we do not hear, see, or speak evil,we ourselves shal be spared all evil." The monkeys originated from the Japanese play on words. "See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil," translated into Japanese is, "mizaru, kikazaru, iwazaru." The Japanese word for monkey is "saru", and sounds very similar to the verb-ending "zaru".
