Do you smell something burning?

Its all good, you don't need to call the fire department or break out the fire extinguisher.

Well it seems that pouring silver is just as addictive as stacking silver. So today I was sitting in the garage and could not find anything new to sandcast. So I started watching YouTube videos and Vulcan appeared in my feed. So I did just what any other stacker would do,,, WATCHED IT. So once the video was over I jumped in the truck and headed to Lowe's. Yep you guessed it I was after some wood. Now before you say anything about Lowe's and wood, I already know their selection of wood is very limited but I was able to find myself a nice piece of Cedar.

Took the dremel and carved out a 1 inch by 2 inch rectangle. That was 3/8 of an inch deep. I decided to leave the corners rounded. Here is the 1st pour.

Lets see how she tunred out.

Now as smooth as that went, I think we will pour again into the same mold to get some more defined burn lines.

Now I will save you the trouble of watching the second pour, cause I went ahead and did a 3rd pour into the same mold.

Here it is.

Boy that looks good in slo-Mo.

Alright here it is uncleaned.

Now lets clean it up and put the dremel on it to polish it a little bit.

Back turned out pretty smooth.

Cool graphics man. Nice work!

Thanks @dkid14😎🍻

Very interesting. It is good to learn new things.

Thanks Ron!

That looks a wicked effect in the pour side..is it different using differing timbers?

It is, the harder the wood the different the burn pattern.

@raybrockman I LOVE the front!!πŸ€— The more this cedar burned the more stunning it looked!!!
Plus you get to pour liquid Silver into a wood mold and watch and smell the wood burning!!πŸ€—πŸ˜€
Thats the way to spend the weekend!!!!

It was a pretty good time, thanks @silvertop

Just keep that fire extinguisher near!!πŸ˜…

Okay... that's the one @raybrockman!!!! Let me know, my friend!

That explains how a piece of silver I saw had the texture it had. Very interesting and informative. Thanks for sharing @raybrockman! I look forward to more of your pours. Have a nice night.

Thanks @elizabethbit!😎🍻

I need to get back into pouring 😞

Seeing everyone else do it makes me miss it more and more...
