9:11 - I like your rig - nice and compact and perfect for home use, but plenty big enough to get the job done. Have you ever done any lost-wax casting? Especially with your moldmaking/casting/printing skillsets and tools, I would think that's not a big leap to take.
Lost wax... Kim has a few projects that involve lost wax, but of course it's not some easy projects. She wants to use a slurry (Suspend-a-Slurry to be exact) but shipping it from Ohio to Chicago is going to cost upwards of $200, so those projects are on hold until we either go to Ohio or pay shipping.
This is so fascinating. We hope someday to be able to build a workshop building in the farm. We’ll have spaces for metal working, leather working, small sawmill, kiln, SFX shop. Any suggestions for work spaces would be appreciated. We know a lot of crafters and want a friends and family kind of crafting space that’s big enough and designed for permanent set ups for us and our friends. Great video as usual!
I try and keep my work areas clean, but life happens. If I didn't also have a full-time job, I'd probably keep it cleaner, but slipping out the garage for an hour hee and there doesn't lend to spotless.
Great video again Hawk. Beautiful work and your sense of humour cracks me it! Well done..👍
Thank you. The total project turned out exactly how I wanted!

Thank you. My biggest suggestion is to use clear bins! Nothing makes my crafting more efficient than not needing to open a bin to know whats in it.
Work spaces that look like working spaces should not be stigmatized because “videos must show pristine spaces” of perceived optics. 🎉

Homie looks like the young bucks
I can kind of see it. Its the long hair.
hey should I make a furnace or buy a kit
I don't know your skill level, but I bought mine.
also what's best way to make the blank?
I resin 3d print most of mine, but they can be made from almost anything. I've seen everything from plastic to wood.
Cool 👍🏻
I thought so too!
