How easy is it to make an ingot mold?
You can place a logo or symbol loosely on your wood pattern to create a unique ingot. You can also carve a logo into the wood pattern for a recessed logo.

  • Were did you get your crucible?

  • @1990suzuki We get them from a company in Canada(AP Green). We sell them on our website (lifting shank included with crucible).

  • The powder is called "parting dust". It is a hydrophobic material , it repells moisture.

  • where do you get this sand? or is it normal sand, it looks powdery 

  • that's cool but scary.

  • That's clean man.

  • Thanks so much...

  • @00honey000 I would use 'lost wax process'. Search for that on YouTube. What I would do is cast the button in wax,using silicone rubber mold. Then cast a ring base also in silicone mold (wax). Stick them together with a soldering iron and mount them on a sprue, invest it and cast. If you invest a little time, (pun intended), you will see what I mean.

  • this is so cool, I wish I new how to make a mold from a Button, I wanna make a ring from one of my Mom's old buttons do u know how besides this way? Thanks
