Casting A COPPER Celtic Skull & Rings - Lost PLA & Wax Casting - Melting Metal At Home
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
- In this video I'll be casting a huge copper skull and some golden rings from scrap copper and bronze. I am using the lost PLA and lost wax method to cast these. I built the casting tree by attaching wax sprues and used investment plaster before burning out the wax and pouring in the molten metal.

Happy Thursday everyone! I hope you all enjoyed this video and are staying healthy and safe at home. Don’t let a little social distancing stop you from doing what you love most 👍🏻
Thanks artbyadock and quick question for when you put the paint on the metal your painting what type of paint are you using
I use magicfly acrylic paint 👍🏻
@@ArtByAdrock thank you so much
Idea...
Have a monthly special?
Hi, you send your products to Colombia?? I want to buy a copper little coin i love your work
Mmmm I love me a mixed metal skull 👌🏻😁. Groovy rings too bro 👊🏻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻
Gotta love the skulls 😉🍻🍻🍻 I might as well throw in a ring for you with the rest of the package 👍🏻
*When the small drill said : nyeeeaw nyeeeaw nyeeaw*
The star wars ring came out cool
love to see you casting more artistic stuff like this
Thanks brotha! 👍🏻🍻 they were really fun to make and I definitely have some new ideas brewing as we speak.
Investment! That's what that's called. I always forget. I need to look it up
That's why I love your channel, you are always trying new stuff. Love the creativity!
Keep them coming man, IL be watching them
aggressive looking good katana and rings
The skull was the best piece I’ve seen! Good job!
Grim reaper ring is dope!
I definitely love that Cubs ring!
my favorite is the one that don't turn your finger green
Nice work. The Cubs and reaper came out nice.
I know what I was going to say I can relate to you more than ever on polishing aluminum brass and copper it isn't easy I've been polishing not very long I just recently got a sanding wheel for my drill and have just started sanding a few aluminum bars it isn't easy but wow it is awesome when it's done I absolutely love your videos and can relate more than ever now keep making your videos Love them so much it keeps me going ❤️😎✌️
That investment casting is way cool! Great Vid! I learned in blacksmith school to always use a metal bucket :)
Cool. I want the Cubs ring
I hate when I get crusties like that in my nose cavity and have to get out the dremel to clean it out!
Very nice this week, very nice!
😊
That was a beautiful pour. And I was able to see that amazing blue green glow when that copper is melting. Excellent job all the way around. My fav ring is the skull in the middle at the end. Great video and thanks for sharing. Hope you and yours are safe. 👍
Amazing work..keep it up bro
Chicago Cubs ring bad ass
Cool! So gravity was enough to fill everything out? I always thought you needed some kind of vacuum or centrifugal contraption…
Awesome video man you and bigstackD are the gold standard when it comes to melting I've started doing it myself thanks for all your inspiration
Beautiful 👍👍👍 . Thanks for sharing
cool... very different video... congrats
Pretty good job
Wow, the level of detail you got out of that plaster was pretty great. Have you ever played with zbrush before? You could probably make some pretty awesome stuff with it.
Thanks 🙏 Yeah I use zbrush a lot 👍🏻
ADAM WHAT DO U MEAN THEY TURNED OUT LOOKING AWESOME I am not much of a ring kind of guy but if I had to choose would b the 1st ring on ur shelf at the end BUT THE SKULL IS THE BEST that SKULL must of taking a long time to clean that up dang it, and I see a few what looks like sum NEW GADGETS u got there 🇨🇦😎👍🇨🇦😎👍🇨🇦😎👍
White cement use for casting
In the words of Vince McMahon, this is "some good shit" right here. Love that skull and all the rings came it great. Really good video man thanks for the ten minuets of entertainment. Cheers!
I bet you could make some really really detailed coins with the lost wax casting
Cool video ...you can use silicon to make multiple copies out of the originals wax rings when it needed also recommend to make cavity into the skeleton wax then cover the hole after casting .to save copper investment of it and gives the skeleton statue heavier ...is it gypsum mold you used to cover the wax forms ?
Awesome job！Love
I would be interested to see other difrent types of metals cast, from lower temp melting, to possibly higher temp melting. Thanks
Would be awesome to see devil forge send ya a custom “ArtbyAdrock” forge !
😊
Do a han solo in coppernite :) looks really good mate
Love them 💀.👍
Next up, a BMW ingot?😂😂
It looked like the copper might be too cold, but everything came out great :)
When casting rings, we always see chunky men's rings. Try a delicate girl's ring sometime?
The rings are awesome. I like the skull with the hat and the star wars one. Cubs was cool, just not a cubs fan lol. The solo skull was awesome that looked like a pain in the ass to clean up though
Hello from Brazil, my name is Gabriel and I am a beginner in copper smelting.
I would like to know if there are any tips for the copper to be well liquefied and drain well into the mold.
is there any technique or any tip, in this video you used 100% pure copper?
thank you so much
AWESOME BIT OF WORK MATE 😊 THOSE RINGS JUST STUNNING. THE SCULLS EYE SOCKETS I MIGHT HAVE LEFT SOME OF THE PLASTER JUST FOR CONTRAST... ANYWAY ADROCK TOP WORK 😁😎😁☮️❤️🏴💣💥
Another great video, keep casting as it really helps pass the time. The Star Wars ring is the best.
Very Cool. The big skull had some awesome detail, and was spot on! The rings were really good, I liked the star wars one, but the skulls were great too. I seen someone looking for molds yesterday and directed them to your website. Great Video and Stay Safe.
Craftsman!!
I do a little bit of jewelry casting myself with my vacuum machine I didn't know you could just pour it in there also
Woah wait whaaat how did they come out so clean without a vacuum caster??
"all this clean-up was very time consuming"
I'll bet, all those tiny details and crevices to clean up, phew. They came out looking great though :D
Yes it really was 👍🏻
I'm partial to the Cubs ring lol😉 however they all turned out great. The skull is fantastic!!
Do you do custom work? I'd like something made
Love this video and love what you do on the channel, what kiln are you using ???
How much would you charge me to do a lost wax cast of a small trinket if i was to send it to you made out of the wax product of your choice? It would not need to be perfect. In fact some air bubles and imperfections would be what I would prefer.
Love the vids would have Ben nice silver for shur Mayb a silver poor ???
Always enjoy watching & learning from your videos. So thank you. I'm interested in creating a small cast for lead how world I go about finding a company to create it?
😷👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Increible...
I think you'd get a cleaner casting if you heated the mold before pouring the metal. From what I've seen from others, lost wax casting is usually extremely clean, but they always heat their molds before use.
Dang, you are getting quiet the workshop over there with those printers and vacuüm stuff. I did not think they would come out that great thinking you did not pour vacuüm. But I have to say, they look great!
plaster mold
I don’t know if you are aware of this trick or not.
But get a dowel about 3 inches in circumference and about 12 inches long and taper from about 5 inches to one end.
This will secure the ring by a friction hold and keep your hands safely away from the polishing wheel and grinding and sanding.
👍👍👍
Casting use white cement
Good show, but, can't tell the wife, "ohh, I love it, I want it, got to have it, when,when,when!!!!l"
Worse than a kid about anything Cubs. Thanks Adam, BTW love the new equipment.
Hello brother my from Indonesian midle Sulawesi
How much money
Really cool video Adrock. I haven't seen that before. You have some cool ideas for melts.
😊
I'm partial to the Cubs ring lol😉 however they all turned out great. The skull is fantastic!!
You and me both 😃
Omgggg... would you make me two big skulls ? one from copper and one from aluminum ...PLEASE!!!!!
Your skills are amazing, I casted a HONDA paper weight but it didn't come out very well
Where do you get your scrape metal/copper?
What's type plaster are you used
I'd like to see you cast those rings from silver, then you could sell them if you wanted.
What’s the name of the kiln you use?
the ring I would like would be the SAN FRANCISCO FORTY NINERS the skull is way Kewl
Is there a calculation for brass, bronze , and copper to wax conversion to know how much metal to use for your weight of wax?
So does that investment stuff surround the foam skull then harden so the liquid metal can’t go thru it but only melts through the foam and creates the brass skull? Is that what’s happening here?
You sir need to buy yourself a bullet brass tumbler! Or even a rock polisher with fine media run them for 20-30 min and the cleanup would all be done for you!
Not the exact same issue but similar to what I'm having I'm trying to make a silicone mold and I'm trying to figure out if it's better to make a vertical mold versus a horizontal mold it's intricate shape and want to make the mold horizontally, I cannot cut the object out of the mold, any advice?
What wall thicknesses do you use for PLA? Are thicker or thinner walls better? I presume you print the models hollow?
Thanks for posting. Where do you get your wax and what kind?
Can anyone help me understand what happens to the plastic/wax part of the mold . Does it just stay In there while the metal is poured or does he take it out someway . Never figured it out . Thank you in advance
try using a vacuum system with your perforated flask when pouring the metal for better results (less porosity, more detail) look into the kaya cast system from arbe
Do you not need a vacuum machine as you pour ? Or did you just poured with the investment mold straight out of the kiln ?
Have you tried to make coins and ingots from plastic? Same way like when you made glass coins and ingots
whether the model you are using is plastic and I see when pouring the tube is not put into the vacuum, whether the result can be maximum when the air in the tube is not released through the vacuum
I got a couple of rings from your link and they are by far my favorite rings I own
Really cool rings, but the skull is AWESOME!!
Would throwing everything in a rock tumbler reduce the cleanup labor?
Pottery Plaster or plaster of Paris or other use investment casting What's type plaster are you used
Watch the trademark police don’t get ya on the ring that Disney now has rites to🙄
You need a rock tumbler or gun she'll tumbler to make cleaning up the pieces a boat load easier
Could you do a Viking themed casting sometime? I think that would be cool. Keep the videos coming man.
I’ve done a Viking Axe in the past for a challenge with BigstackD and Vog, check out that video 😉
Adrock help me please why mi copper rings have so much burbbles??
Do you do custom stuff? I've got some silver shot I been wanting made into an engagement ring but got no clue how to do this stuff
I really like the skull, just different enough to be appealing.
Quality mate
I love the Star Wars ring and that skull is cool 👍
Awesome skull and all the skull rings didn't like the Cubs ring
Id like to buy the skull in this video if posibal please contact me.
Tem alguem português
Dude, get a jewellers tumbler, it makes cleaning up casts much easier. Especially if you start doing precious metals.
Nice bro,what slicer you use and 3d application?
Great vid lost pla is hard and expensive glad to see someone do a good one, if find a cheaper way to make the investment tho, everything looked brand new, I’m jealous
Buy a Vapor hone micro , it will make your job faster
I love all of your videos but this one is my favorite cause I love skulls
