Hi everybody! I'm really trying to grow this channel, and will be increasing my content production in the near future. I could really use your help in letting the TH-cam algorithm know my videos are good, by watching, liking, commenting, and sharing my vids. Your support is much appreciated!
I have several cast coins for sale on my etsy store: www.etsy.com/shop/MadeByFarmCraft101?ref=seller-platform-mcnav.
Thoughts and suggestions always appreciated! Have a great weekend!
Liked, subscribed, hit the bell and here's a comment for the algorithm.
Been enjoying your content for ages, never underestimate the impact of inertia and indolence on viewer response times. Thanks for all the work you put in and good luck with the channel.
Sir you deserve all the subscribers in the world, good work keep it up 👍
I love what you do. Glad to be here before you get super famous. keep making videos and we will watch them.
Nice coin.
Good luck with growing the channel. I did share your cannon build on Facebook a while back, but a good idea might be to work on a joint project with another channel several times because you tend to pick up the other viewers too. For example, Joerg from the Slingshot channel worked together with Mike from Explosive Science and Mike multiplied his viewers by a factor greater than 10 in roughly 4 weeks of joint projects at one each week.
Perfect timing 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
wow. such social engagement. so grrrowth.
Lost PLA casting is the future of so many DIY projects
Best Part: Lady Bug about 7 min, great humor! But at the end, seeing the large hasp lock again - PRIMA!
You pretty much have everything you need to be your own Ruger now.
That was not a ladybug. It's an invasive species called Harmonia axyridis or Asian Lady Beetle.
Yeah, we have tons of them.
I actually want to see this thing on the moon as a tourist attraction!
im so glad you didnt leave the lady bug in the crucible most people would have no regard for animals let alone insects i love to see people who care about nature cheers
Thank you for showing us that the ladybug was fine.
Awesome video! I work for a Aerospace Casting company who uses this method to make Jet engine parts.
You are always a "Must watch now" video. She Who Must Be Obeyed (SWMBO) can wait for the grass to be cut.
Shrinkage must be accounted for. Every man must know this....
Perseverance pays off 🙂 This attempts with the ceramic turned out near perfect.
Ladybird is just sat there vibing 🤣
I like your sense of humour😂 the coin looks much wow
I have been waiting for someone to make a good diy video of this process!
Check Robinson Foundry too, then!
after all the times you tried to cast a high detail coin, you finally got one! great results!
You're having a lot of fun with that 3d printer!
This process obviously it lends itself to preparing several molds at a time. Even if you aren't going to fire them all at once if every time you did a dip and dry cycle you were dipping five molds and setting them you would get more efficiency.
This makes this process simple, more so than othe videos I watched on the process.
The ladybug! 👍❤👍
Nice work. Since you’re 3D printing and it’s easy, you should add relief angles so the refractory coating cleans off easier.
I loved watching you build the cannon, and big lock , please continue your builds , there mesmerizing
This Is an amazing process. I'm also very surprised at how affordable the ceramic slurry is.
Have you tried out "shell molding" ? This is an awesome modern casting technique invented in 1944 in Germany. You could even 3D print the whole mold!
I love how you are exploring new methods of production. I found your channel though a sand-casting video, and now this- very cool
Hi. Here from Cody's Lab! Good job!!!
I love the quality of teaching in your videos. It gives anyone a chance to have a go! Thanks and I look forward to the channel growing.
I came back a few weeks after seeing this video to tell you a little piece of info I found that may or may not help your casting small intricate objects.
I recently was able to be a fly on the wall at a goldsmith's workshop.
He makes rings and intricate gold and silver castings. He uses the lost wax method plus the vacumn method of removing air bubbles from the plaster.
Here is where he then diverges. He uses what is called centrifugal casting. Simply stated, roughly a 24 inch arm having a crucible just past center on one side of center with the arm having on the other far end a jig for holding the plaster mold is utilized. The center of the arm is attached two what looks like a garden tractor blade spindle that has a strong spring within it.
When he is ready he winds the arm so that the spring is wound tight and he then places his plaster mold HOT out of the oven into the centrifugal device. He places small chunks of silver or gold with flux into the crucible. He heats with a torch the material in the crucible until it runs like water at which point he releases a catch that causes, by spring power, a rapid spining of the arm causing the molten metal to quickly flow via a connection from the crucible into the mold.
The entire spin lasts perhaps 40 seconds but the claim is that the molten metal flows into place in milliseconds and the rest is just to keep it in place until it is sure to be solidified.
The process is rather neat and the detail is amazing. I am sure if you Google the method you have all the right stuff to make the centrifugal casting machine.
Good luck.
This would be cool to see
In the art industry we did this . We call it “Lost Wax”.
Lost WAX or lost PLA whats cool is that you can use both wax and PLA so I wonder if you could smooth the 3D prints with Wax to get a better casting surface.
Wow, cool method. Thanks for sharing!
Been looking forward to this
Didn't expect to see a layer 8 error in a casting video.
Awesome Dogecoin !!!!!!!!!!!!
Lol outro music is what my kids videos are always using
This video is very useful and you have given very important practical information, thank you for sharing
So much cool, very casting.

I want to sleep
I see this video
Now i cant go to sleep
Thanks fro good video!
Very cool watching you try to perfect this process. Thanks for sharing.
Unlike cryptocurrency nonsense, this example of "try, try again" actually has value. 👍👍👍
Been waiting for this, thank you for the EXCELLENT video!
I think that the "imperfections" add to the overall beauty of the coin.
Dude, that came out awesome. Well done!
Suspenda slurry, then use mortar mix after you create the hardened shell for support of the shell (should be cheaper than plaster of paris and once burned out then dunked in water it breaks up pretty easily
Congradulations! It worked perfectly!
I was apprehensive about the suspendaslurry but the clear results i keep seeing across youtube seems worth it. Im trying go prototype parts from lost pla casting
You’re very patient sir I love your videos and info
Awesome information I always learn something from your videos. One of my top 3 favorite channels!!
Great Work!! That’s Awesome!!👍😁
It was fun. Got a lot to learn, thanks man.
ceramic shell certainly seems cool
Wow very good result. Great work man!
Great video. Glad this one worked out for ya.
great video such skill wow
Doge coin is 5 percent Anti-Money. I read it officially.
You got the whole set up, don't you. : )
That looks awesome
I bought a physical dogecoin made from copper years ago, pretty sure you can buy solid gold ones for several years also...
I love lady bugs as they eat aphids off my Maples
Great result after so much fails... Must be super satisfying to get to this point
thank s
this is beautiful
Coin imperfections are rare and very valuable! ;)
That settles it .I am keeping my DOGE now.
There are some post-processing things you can do to at least smooth out the printing lines of the 3D print before casting. Also smaller nozzles and different filaments would affect print quality.
Also ironing top layer passes in cura and other splicers.
Really nice dood. I will be following you down the shell path. Thanks for the tips. Polycast wax filament is a dream to work with btw👍
Noice! I see your onion layer dipping helped with bubbles and the larger taller spru channel helped fill in more of the lettering, though it ended up being still not quite enough pressure, If you want to try this again, try attaching the main spru channel on the top, see if that gives you enough pressure to fill in the rest of the letters.
Another awesome video. TO THE MOON!
Great success!
I love your videos!
You got it .. very nice .. I watched both video's man you just don't give up.. Nice to see you battled it until you got it Take Care
Thanks, this is great and will be helpful to me.
Very nice video! Greetings from Germany!
Now you can use the shell casting to make a better cannon. And fire it this time!
PS, Mrs FarmCraft is gonna be mad that you cracked her flower pot.
Nice.
Hi Jon I knew a guy that made pewter belt buckles. He had the moulds on a turntable to send the m3tal into the moulds. He didn't even motorize it just spun it by hand. Maybe something you would like to trial at some point. Thanks for the work and content.
Great content! Keep it up 😎
this method looks very promising
Very nice project with clear explanation. Can you make some video on how to prepare ceramic slurry.
You should look into a slicer setting in Cura called Ironing. It will help smooth the top of your prints out and reduce any post processing work you have to do
I 100% agree. This first one should go to the moon. The next one I want to buy though. Looks amazing!!
congratulations.
Much engagement, such energy, very interest, wow
It came out very well! How much of the slurry do you think you ended up using?
Hardly noticeable amount of slurry. I'd say less than $5.
Cool. Gonna sub like and comment in order to bring this in the TH-cam algoritm.
Much coin. very wow.
Comment support - videos wow such content much enjoy
Much wow
Much Wow
Hi did you spray the coin with soapy water as a surfactant to resist possible air bubbles, I noticed that Kelly Coffield does that. I do like the copper pipe idea for making bronze
Rich
NICE
I was thinking if you could repeat that gear project but this time with lost PLA and ceramic shell.
Thanks alot.

I wonder what kind of quality you would get if you combined this process with vacuum casting.
can you explain what suspended slurry is? maybe in our country it has a different name? what mixture is it made of?
Such wow
Your content is great. I’m sure you don’t get enough monetization , but more of your stuff the better.
Thanks for demonstrating ceramic shell coatings for home casting. What are your power requirements for the complete casting? A few of us would like to run electric furnaces from a solar-charged battery bank. Knowing the power requirements would be a great help!
Nice video. You are not to far from me in Va.
Hi great video. I am attempting something similar if a little bigger and more complex in shape. I was wondering what you were using to glue the vents to the model - a glue gun? it looks like this burns out ok? I ask because I was worried about introducing other materials into the 'wax' model. I'm actually using a product called 'polycast' in my printer to create the model. It prints really well though I haven't had a chance yet to burn it out, what do you use? Polycast actually glues together pretty well using isopropanol but a glue gun would be much better for gap filling and quicker. Last thing, I'm guessing the ceramic shell is not porous therefore using a vacuum would not be an option after pouring? Thanks :)
