These pickets are to replace missing or damaged ones that surround the plot of my friend, Tony Curtis. He rests within the Kirby plot at Mount Holly cemetery in Little Rock, Arkansas. This fencing is actually original to Tony’s residence 3 blocks away. The skill and care by everyone involved in this process is heartwarming. For those that knew Tony, he would love that this 136 fence was being preserved by others just as he would have done himself.
I think it's amazing that you manage to video and get work done - it's surprisingly time consuming just setting up shots let alone all the other stuff like lighting and sound etc, etc. You have an impressive operational workshop and great skills. - That turkey looked perfect :-)
I have to admit I didn't see the turkey coming. BTW: A little trick I learned from a restaurant owner who cooked 4-5 turkeys a day. He taught me to always cook turkeys breast "Down". The reason is when cooked traditionally breast up all the white breast meat drys out and easily over cooks. Cook it with the breast down and all the dark meat which is where all the fats and oils are, now are on top. As it cooks all those oils and fats will liquefy and soak into the white breast meat. Now youll find only a fraction of oils and fats in the tray because they've all stayed in the meat. It will be some of the richest, juiciest breast meat you'll ever taste. Try it, it really works, enjoy!
I naively thought that once you had a pattern a foundry could knock out lots of castings with no trouble. But it's amazing how much time and skill goes into making the mould.
As long as the lid stays on the turkey I'd assume the steam would keep any possibly problematic vapors from making their way into the meat, if you were cooking on a grate maybe it would be a problem.
You are two businesses - a foundry business and a film making business. Both should make money. Maybe the film business could support the foundry business, but that is rare.
Since you've successfully cast the fence pickets... I was wondering about the New Orleans railings, I don't remember a resolution to the pattern fill issues.
Great job on the pickets and on the turkey, I knew you were going to use that kiln to cook a turkey! I just knew it! I used to cook our Thanksgiving turkey in the ground - Look up "imu" - Hawaiian version of a ground oven. We moved to a more suburban location and the smoke the imu creates would probably upset our neighbors.
I came for the Tally Ho, but really got hooked on the projects that you guys do. I think this is really interesting, but I'll stick with my smoker for the turkey. LOL
Get paid for your work! I love my brass parrot! I was amazed how economical it is. (you should charge more.😁 ) It will be great to be able to throw a few dollars your way. Thanks for the videos.
I'm still trying to decide whether or not you really cooked the turkey that way. 😂 Castings look good! Looking forward to the capstan casting along with everyone else. In due time, of course.
I thought for sure you were just having fun with us until you started talking about how careful you were, trying to keep the armchair safety police at bay. Too funny. 😂👍
A kiln is an oven. Pop some popcorn. That's what's up. Foundry work can get repetitive...almost boring. Popcorn. That's the ticket to keep me coming back.ty.
A LOT of people have to understand that the time required to make a project is probably more than DOUBLED when you're filming and explaining what you're doing! Your output would probably be double if you weren't filming it! Several other TH-camrs have admitted this - even Keith Rucker! I bet Keith will be happy to have that counterweight and get Jimmy's bandsaw finally finished and out of his shop!
Yes, I have cast that weight twice now but feel good about the third one and yes, I probably spend a day and a half just editing, placing ads and info cards
THE problem with deep friers for cooking a turkey is remembering to account for the volume of the bird in the oil so the oil doesn't overflow when the bird is lowered into the pot. That will creat a bad day.
Lee, we never got to complete that job due to circumstances that were out of our control. In the end, we were able to produce good castings, but we missed our opportunity to complete this as the customer went a different route.
Don’t let pride keep you from patronage. Give your patrons viewing a few weeks earlier as thanks. It’s business not personal. Find a cameraman get lots of footage and have several episodes in the rears so you’re not pressed. This should be enjoyable not an annoying task. Great content
Don't think i can fit a turkey in my diy knife heat treat oven, small chicken might just fit. Can't blame you on starting a patreon account, its alot of work you put in to these video's and time is money. How is your back doing now?
Unfortunately clark some people people don't understand that there is only 24hours in a day and seven days in a week. The one comment that really got up my nose in business was ' it should only take fifteen minutes ' well then do it yourself idiot. Great videos clark cheers. AUSTRALIA
You know what, if you want to lick a 220 volt outlet, that's on you. These people need to let others live their lives. And because working with liquid iron is perfectly safe! There are inherent risks in every job that makes "real" tangible things... I big drop of water falling into that crucible of liquid iron makes for an extremely bad day!
Yes, I accidently dropped a wet peice of iron in the other night as I was attempting to preheat. Big brilliant shower and of course the camera wasn't on🙄
ah... the tyranny of success be it a youtube channel or any other owner/proprietor business. There are not enough hours in the day for you to get everything done. The making of successful sand cast molds are part science, part art and part magic. Not even counting the actual pouring of the molten metal...
Turkey was great !
Beautiful work Clarke. That turkey looked delicious! What a unique way to cook it that reflects the vibe of Windy Hill Foundry. Thanks for sharing!

good job
This is one funny guy and gives a bunch of himself in every video. Please keep em coming
Thanks for sharing Clark
Those are beautiful pickets. I need a set for my grave. Thank you Clarke.
I finally have one of your castings done Randy, hope to knock the rest out in the next week
Amazing how you heated up four brake rotors and miraculously they transformed into a roasted turkey.
😁
I appreciate every video you put out and understand the time it takes to do the video versus casting metal. Thank you for all you do Clark and Josie.
Woo hoo..........Frankenturkey! Yum!
😁
Love the pickets! Nice work on such long thin pieces. Re: the turkey... any meal you can walk away from is a good one.
Love the Turkey Cooker!
Nicely done Clark

You deserve a Patreon account. I'll sign up.
Thanks Doug👍
Patreon is not a handout- you earn it. I'll be signing up. Keep up the great work!
Love the fence. The hell with the naysayers, enjoyed! Gobble Gobble.
Love it. Turkey in America!!!😊😊😊😊
Did this in highschool for a historical society many many years ago, I really respect your craftmanship. Thanks for showing.

I've asked the same thing more than once to no avail.
Yup! Put the Patreon thing up and I’ll sign up. As a retired small business owner I know how thin the profit margins are.
Thanks Rex👍
To hell wit the saftey jaks, i want suma that turkey man😂. Love ur channel, please keep up the awsome work!!!

Thanks Brian, this channel is always unpredictable, as real as it gets because we are always diving into a unique challenge every day.

Thanks Bob and glad you like the parrot👍

You do some nice work mate. I love the use of old brake rotors. Cheers, see you next week.

Making videos takes time. Editing them takes much more time. Great job on those castings.
When do you need to heat up the molds before pouring?
And watch out for the deep fryers. Be safe everyone. God bless.
THE problem with deep friers for cooking a turkey is remembering to account for the volume of the bird in the oil so the oil doesn't overflow when the bird is lowered into the pot. That will creat a bad day.
what is the shrinkage formula for a turkey?? does ducks back make a good seasoning ??
Brake dust is the secret
I wonder if you could cast some new brake rotors? :D
Nice idea on the Patreon though.
You're going to be hungry the next time you fire up the kiln.😊
Did you ever have any luck with the New Orleans ornate work that was giving you fits?
Lee, we never got to complete that job due to circumstances that were out of our control. In the end, we were able to produce good castings, but we missed our opportunity to complete this as the customer went a different route.
more good work Clark. btw, did you ever get those railings for the New Orleans building to cast properly? did I miss an episode of that?
If it succeeded it must be safe.

It’s not a handout. It is remuneration for service provided.
There's only so many hours in a day. You can only do what you can. Gotta get the money coming in before anything else. Nice castings by the way.
Don't think i can fit a turkey in my diy knife heat treat oven, small chicken might just fit.
Can't blame you on starting a patreon account, its alot of work you put in to these video's and time is money.

So, what kind of glaze do you use on a turkey in a pottery kiln?
Honey butter with a dash of grinding dust
❤❤MAKE AND SELL A HAT OR SHIRT THAT SAYS. " I helped make TALLY HO!" I will BUY 10 myself.❤❤
Difficult to smoke a turkey in the kiln 🤣
I smoked the second one, to ashes🙄

Man you really need to slow down on the road. You’re really going through way too many brake rotors! 😳
I am well aware you could pull a shift at McDonald’s and make more than you tube but then how could you get such good after the fact advice? Lol
Why do they bother putting a fence around a cemetery??? Because people are just dying to get in.
Fences are not to keep people out.. its to keep the ghosts IN
Old.
But still funny and we are going to heck
Badoom, tshhhhhh! 🎉😂

Tally Ho needs you!
This! I'm really excited to see that project finish up between two of my favorite youtube channels!
Jojo, we will have the Tally Ho fixed up soon. It's just my wife and I doing the work of 20 at this point😞
Thanks Keith👍
