I was a winner of Joshua Anderson's silver giveaway. I received a nice tiny little glass bottle and cork with silver shot in it. I'm not much of a silver pourer but the little silver shot beads gave me the idea that if a werewolf attacks, I can use the silver beads for ammo in my BB gun. Course I could use the silver shot to reload and make an anti-vampire shotgun shell. Thanks Joshua!
Haha... Happy to help thort off the werewolves!
Very nice job of showing the whole mold making process.

I received my silver today. Love it. Thank you!
Awesome, thanks for letting me know, & thanks for watching!
Very educational, keep up the good work.
Thank you very much for watching, and the feedback! I have some more similar content planned for the near future! Any suggestions of content you may like to see?
@@JoshuaAndersonLife Restorations, nickel plating, break down of your full stack, more crushing cars with a tank, flea market/yard/garage sales, mudlarking, metal detecting, wooded area adventures.
it's all I got
@@thedude232 Awesome, thanks again for the feedback! Break down of some of my more interesting pieces in my stack would be something I could do coming up. I think I'll try to add that within the next month or two!

My silver shot arrived today! Awesome! Thank you. Such a cute little glass jar of silver! 😊
*DAMN! This was so cool to watch mate. I don't know why I have this love to see old or new (not rare) silver coins being melted and take a new shape (or just a silver bar). :D*
Thank you very much for watching and the comment! I find melting silver in general to be somewhat stress relieving, and relaxing (for a lack of a better way to put it). Do you happen to do any pouring?
@@JoshuaAndersonLife Indeed it's so relaxing to watch silver coins being melted!
I wish I had that much unwanted silver coins to melt! LOL!
@@NandiCollector I think I might do a copper melting video coming up soon!

Would a ceramic casting approach lead to a better finish? Ie make a silicone mold, make a wax copy that ~I`so lost in the `pour?`.
@@en2oh That's a good question. I don't think it would make a significant difference. The sand casting is very fine, and when done right has very high detail and very low defect. It would be similar to using a graphite mold, and I believe you can get just as good results (of not better) with sand or clay casting.
keep the good work up bubba

@manoffire786 Awesome, thank you for letting me know!
Thought I'd chime in here as I have some background being on foundry floors back in the day
THE TWO problems with cast fake COUNTERFEITS: The WEIGHT and the SIZE after casting especially using an original coin:
(1) WEIGHT - This is due to nature of gravity casting creating an understandably more porous grain structure vs a metal being struck and compressed in a die. The same reasoning behind why forged or roll formed billet metals are stronger albeit heavier by volume than gravity casted specimens due to the smaller "squished" grain structures.
(2) SIZE - This is due to shrinkage of the metal. Sterling has an average of 5% shrinkage rate between your master and the reproduction using a mold. This is what your petrobond is serving as in this case. So the master coin (In the case of a morgan dollar being 1.5" in diameter) after duplication via casting would be up to 0.075" or approx 5/64th of an inch smaller than the original. In our foundry we would use specialty urethanes that would be poured into the master mold and expand then remolded in silicone to compensate and create our master molds for the tooling resin on the pattern boards.
Considering this was a demonstration AKA no well at the gate, blind or open risers/vents around the circumference...the result was fairly satisfactory without getting into the complexities of usual sand casting metal flow characteristics/pattern board design. It really is only as complicated as you NEED to make it.
Back In my heyday of casting bronzes and cast irons I've always found the most rewarding pieces to be the "one-offs" that would come in. (when metal shrinkage wasn't an issue with the client regarding the finished piece). We would just do as you did. Press the part into the drag up to a reasonable the parting line, ram the cope on top lift it and hand carve the feeders, runners, vents and pouring cups by hand with our patterning tools. Maybe a quick corebox mold; we even used ultracal or a graphite bar or block stock for the core in a pinch etc. But those were always the fun ones for me when I was a kid! I'd throw in some of my own stuff here and there when we had extra space on a flask. Don't tell anyone but that's how all those bronze handwheels ended up on my lathes back then ;-]
Petrobond is the way to go. Greensand is just not up to the task with small detail. I've picked up fingerprints in silicon bronze castings with our mix of petro. Though your petrobond looks VERY much more virgin to the stuff that was in our foundry floor mullers! I used to mull the de-flasked petrobond with 2 stroke oil after deflasking to reconstitute it. Thus it got darker over time. We would feed in the fresh stuff once as needed. I miss those days of being a foundry foreman....
I'd be very "interested" in seeing how ceramic shell or even just a fine jewelers investment would improve the fidelity. Few extra steps of the mother mold, making waxes (even 3d printing waxes these days!) and then burnout. Nonetheless it could make for an interesting video. Thanks for this, it was fun to watch and good on you for using the right sand! Most youtube videos I've seen are "casting-foundry" channels that are green-sanding it all the way to hobbyist amature-ville. While there is nothing wrong with greensand....our saying was "save it for the manhole covers". We dealt with marine grade manganese and Ni-Al bronzes (MIL-B-24480A) for "subcontractors". Let's just say some of these castings (may have) ended up on the subs at the Groton, CT sub base.
Wow, thank you for sharing! Very detailed and elaborate information from someone in the trade. I've considered adding some oil to the Petro at times to try to improve the casting. After reading your feedback I think I'll play around with that a bit. Thank you for watching, and thanks again for the info!
Me want to win lots and lots of silver. Lol
