Casting 1-2-3

Following my visit to the foundry, my duck & rhino sculptures are being cast this week:

The wax of the duck is set into position with clay



The bronze is melted down in a furnace




The molten bronze is poured into the plaster cast which encases the wax
of my sculpture and is left to cool



Any surplus bronze is poured back into bars to be used again later - it's too valuable to waste!
