Demonstrator: Kevin Vanek


Small-scale hand casting is an iron slinger’s interpretation of a jewelry arts process. Using oxy torch rigs, jewelers and crucibles, sand mold scraps, and scrap bronze dug up from the sand pit, you can cast some fun, quick, little sculptures or jewelry items. This process is a great way for beginning foundry students to get comfortable with fire and molten metal, and become inspired to work bigger on future foundry projects.
