Here is a link to the college http://www.mesalands.edu/Programs/bronze.htm and here is the pour from a few years ago http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSvRKSom7QU

Sounds interesting. Remind us please.

Sculptors come from all over the USA and for a week we make art, such fun, then invest the waxes, burn out and pour the iron. I make ewers! If you check the web site of Mesalands Community College towards the end of next week we will be pouring on the 13th of March. They usually have a live feed of it all week showing yard activity.

Yes, molten iron poured into molds. Wonderful stuff! I'm so gimped they don't let me pour any more but I get to make waxes, invest them and watch, orange hot molten iron being poured and then bring home my ewers.

Iron pour?

(Feb/26/10 - 10:14 PM) Bentiron

OH No! Here we go again with the price of silver and gold! I bet by the time I get back from the iron pour next month and can buy more silver in April I won't be able to. Woe is me!

I've now made 4 (!) different loop in loop chains. Need to order more silver if I'm to play with more.

Bentiron, I live just 50 miles east of Grand Junction. The weather is not too bad. This winter has been a record one for cold and snow. An article today in the paper says the city golf courses will not open until next week. They are usually closed for only a few weeks in January. Usual winter daytime highs in the upper 40's. Summer highs of near 100. Low humidity so it does cool down at night.

Do you mean "has a Stuller account?"

(Feb/22/10 - 07:58 PM) Bentiron

We have had rain now for three days, Hallelujah! Downside, weeds, rodents galore and more varmints, also chance of big summer fires! I guess you have to take the good with the bad.

Happyduck, I don't think anyone here is a dealer, but I'd be willing to make a call to try to find one for you. let me know what you need.

(Feb/22/10 - 01:02 PM) happyduck1979

(Feb/16/10 - 03:36 PM) Bentiron

Zanes, Thanks for the information on the handpiece, now I can take it apart and fix it.

Rina, the tongs are ordered. and the copper weave completed.

Yes, she has applied for a job in Grand Junction. Doesn't sound like the most wonderful spot climate wise but who knows for sure. I hate cold.
