I think its nicer to solder than silver. it doesn't eat the heat up as much. if you only need a small amount wire will probs work out cheaper. well maybe more expensive but cheaper to buy a smaller...

They came out really well !

If you are just reshaping, its ok to work with. its like platinum ish, If you need to resize I would be careful taking the job on if you are not sure. Also don't beat it so much as it will need...

that looks great nice job

Alumi-UV Resin is a great way to finish it. you can use a cheap nail curing light to set it as long as the wave length matches

I personally always found out it works out a bit more expensive when you add import tax if applicable and the money the courier company charges for 'processing'. But Ive not ordered from the states...

I think that investment is something like this for a 3"x 3" flask
room temp to 230 for 1.5 hours ...

Are you casting the wax and resin together ? I know its the obvious one and I'm sure you have thought of it but have you changed anything to make it change in the last month ? It looks to me light...

I have seen this too, and thought I want to try it maybe its stainless steel I'm not sure. I think stainless would have more chemical resistance than aluminum ?

ah ok, maybe try searching Petrobond or Oil Bonded Metal Casting Sand ?

Amazon maybe? ...

If its only 6 I would cut them from sheet. I have not seen than design before sorry

SteveLAO worked at London assay office if memory serves so maybe see if it can be downloaded from there ?
