Metal casting process

1. First the is made with beeswax (For larger models, the product is filled with clay on the inside, creating a hollow).

2. This is then packed with a layer of fine wet mud and is then coated with another layer of thick mud, thus creating a mold.










3. These moulds are then heated in a kiln, so the bees wax melts out, leaving a hollow space for the metal to be filled in.













4. The brass pieces are then melted and poured into the empty mould using an iron spoon. It solidifies almost immediately












5. When it cools down, the clay mould is broken to expose the freshly cast product inside.

6. The final finishing is done by sandpapering it to smoothen out the surface.
