Iron Pour 101

After attending the meeting for the Mayor's Walk, the Damsels and Tri-TANs decided to check out the Driftwood Valley Music Festival together.

Had a good time chatting with them while listening to a live band.....






We also watched intently how different art forms can be created using iron to pour into molds.


We never really asked anyone how this procedure goes nor the different equipment used but let's see if our interpretation of it makes any sense at all.


So ladies and gentlemen, presenting, the Iron Pour......





Prepare the moulds first.

(of course, or else our products would look all the same.. duh!) Feel free to let your imagination roll.








Pour the iron into the thingy.




















Turn the furnace on for the melting of the iron.











... and when that's ready......














.....the hot molten metal can be poured into your desired mold.














Pretty simple explanation from a spectator's point of view. That wasn't too bad, if I'd say so myself. I just hope I did not misinform anyone of anything. =P So to continue, these are only a few of the examples of what the final product may look like. TA-DA!!!


You'd be surprised on how expensive these artworks are....but nah.... don't fret 'coz with my lecture at Iron Pour 101, you can simply whip up babies like these at your backyard!....... uh right??
