Jeshua Lacock Presents Lost Shell Sand Casting for PLA 3D Printed Models

[Ama-fessional Molder]

It is an informational video of what we do here. We go out of our way to discourage others from trying it at home.

How many of these people that you have in mind, just happen to have an induction furnace laying around that is able to melt a pot full of copper at a flip of a switch?

I could only hope that if someone owns *any* type of professional industrial equipment, that they know how to use it properly and safely before attempting to even turn it on.

Note that I spend 5-minutes going over basic metal safety in this video:

To be fair, you can build an induction furnace with not much more work than this casting process takes.
