I was doing a little search on youtube for some casting hints a little while back and was reminded of this video. Using salt and flour, I thought it was interesting. I have not tried it, but after discussion with a friend, thought it may be worth a post here.

It may not be for the high heats, but certainly it may seem useful for pewter or a little higher.... anyone willing to Cast-away (http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3 DSjcj64aNxAY&h=BAQFUqP-7) and provide some feedback? Obviously, safety precautions are a must and be careful, as the comments say that there are issues with aluminium and salt



there is also a vid on making green casting sand using play sand and cat litter!
