Hi! Love the videos I love using delft clay to cast rings and faceted sapphires. Could you do a video on cleaning up the ring? How to sand / polish the ring so the natural texture from the casting stays on it ? I am still a newbie to this all and seem to sand it to much and loose that texture

[@sandcasting_with_kirralea]

I will have to keep that in mind for a future video :)

Thx Kirra 🌷

[@scotts4134]

Thank you! I'm wondering why you put an air vent on only one side of the mold. You don't need it on both sides?

How long did it take to melt the metal with that torch?

[@sandcasting_with_kirralea]

I can melt 30g of sterling silver in less than a minute :)

How do you do copper

[@sandcasting_with_kirralea]

Everything the same, just takes longer to melt bevause copper has a higher melting temp

Hello Kirra, I really enjoy your channel. I would like to have some advice from you regarding making a textured bracelet. Which email can I contact you at?

[@scotts1356]

I've seen many people that fill the second mold with the delft clay first and then put them together. I'm curious why you're doing it differently. Thanks. BTW, I'm brand new to pouring!
