Hi all
I am getting a lot of air holes / blow holes pits whatever you want to call them in both silver and gold when I melt it down to make wire or sheet. I use a clean crucible for each metal I use borax to prevent oxidation and melt using a maxi gas and oxygen mix. I also have mapp gas but i find its just not hot enough. I have started playing around with the delft clay and mould and have made some great items only to have them spoiled by the air holes which can not be polished out. Anyone any ideas how I can get better results?
Thanks philip
