Pour Pour Me

Bryn and I suited up for the pour

The pouring point for bronze is somewhere around 1800 °F to 2000 °F. Last Thursday I took part in my first Bronze pore. I have been watching bronze being poured for some time.

I have set up the pour box and lined it with damp sand before. I have pulled the investments out of the kiln and arranged them in the pour box. I have broken them down after the pour. But this is the first time I have helped pull the crucible out of the blast furnace and then helped to pour the liquid bronze into the molds.
