Welcome to Art Bronze, Inc. Please enjoy this short video tour of our foundry located in Burbank, California. You are welcome to come and tour in person, but until then please enjoy..
Proffesional made sculptures - love it :) I try to make ceramic shell castings at my own for a hobby in different metals. Maybe some day I am gonna be so advanced as proffessional sculptors.
1:17 time 👈 What is the coating around the wax model.. What is the name of that white gypsum like material? Please tell me the product name and details.. I want that ceramic product. I didn't think to ask about the bronze alloy
excellent video thank you for sharing. I believe in your youtube settings you have this video listed as "for Kids" this makes it so we cannot save it to play lists.... if you change that and respond to this message i will save it to a playlist, encourage others to see it... and delete this message. Thanks for posting
I work in a steel foundry we do the same thing but instead of bronze its iron and steel. Pretty cool seeing the process differently. We use sand molds with two halves. Our process is way different but vaguely similar. Thanks for the video.
It must not be very dangerous at all because in India they do it in bare feet or sandals, short pants and no PPE what so ever. Seriously, what do you imagine would happen if a splattering of molten metal at close to 2000 degrees splashed onto your skin.
You aren't doing 'Lost Wax' you're doing ceramic shell. Ceramic Shell casting is the modern way of casting with high tech silica and can take thermal shock which allows most of the wax to be recovered and the wax is Not lost. Lost Wax method is when the wax is completely burned up from a mostly gypsum (plaster) based mold that is around the wax and incasing it. Today that process is also referred to as 'Standard' because it's the old or ancient way to cast bronze (metal) sculpture. Since the main ingredient in the 'Standard' method is plaster it makes the mold very fragile to sudden heat shock. Because of the heat shock issue, the molds have a very slow flame that increases over a day or longer and during this process the wax is burned up. That is the Lost Wax method. The casting method in this video is Not the Lost Wax method.
Exelente trabajo felicidsdes
Very beautiful artwork, thank you for sharing.

Yeah I must be visit your place 🙏.
And I need your assistance, can you please help me for my sculpture ?
Man I wish you guys would post regularly this has been amazing
Viejillo
Sorry I randomly added four comments rather than 1?😣
Will you send me the details of materials used in these process
Thank you!!
So who does the "Wally" trophies for NHRA?
Super
Great video and amazing results.
great video. Thanks.
What kind of wax is used?
Nice.
can anyone tell me why this method of welding is chosen and not the oxy acetylene welding?
because using acetylene weldin makes the bronze patinate more and the weld is there seen more - thats why you use tig method
Beautiful.
How dangerous is this?
It must not be very dangerous at all because in India they do it in bare feet or sandals, short pants and no PPE what so ever. Seriously, what do you imagine would happen if a splattering of molten metal at close to 2000 degrees splashed onto your skin.
Good work

Ope.
Nice.
You are saying that you mastered something that was used back in 1200 BC? bruh... Invent a new technique of casting..
