Haven't had much time for turning lately. I've been glued to my casting table hours on end. Good thing is I got to try casting some ideas I came up with for the August PITH.
First up is a Graduate RB. My idea was to try and cast something that looks like a flame but nothing like my combustion blank. It was a good idea, but I think it fell a bit flat once it was finished. Might need to add more blue and deepen the orange. Reverse painted black:
Next is a new blank I've been playing around with. This was my tester piece and I put it on an Aero BP. Turned great with standard and carbide tools. Did need a CA finish though. I was hoping to avoid that part but alas. Reverse painted black:
Last but not least was a pour from leftover resin. I had no clue as to what it'd end up looking like. Thankfully I wrote down what I did bc this came out AWESOME :biggrin:. I put it on an Aero BP and reverse painted black.
Thanks for looking!
