After melting aluminium in the oil burner powered furnace, I pour it on my balls to make so me unique and artistic castings and live to tell the tale!
The balls I am using are know as water balls or water Crystals and are available all over fleabay. They are tiny beads which swell up when soaked in water. The molten aluminium I melt in the furnace goes around the balls to form interesting shapes and patterns as it solidify's.
The aluminium is mainly from scrap car parts I melted down and am now re melting to make these castings. I am going to keep some other media in mid and try doing some aluminium casting with that for something different.
Please have a look at my good friend Bobs Channel at youtube.com/channel/UC1Helu4HpPi_NFpFHeKoyrQ and tell him oil burner sent you. Bobs a real character who is damn clever in what he does and always entertaining. He's also a great support and encouragement to me.
Also have a look at the man that got me started, Kevin Bacon. youtube.com/user/kbbacon
for more great vids from the master of rocket stoves.
Thanks everyone for your support this year even though I didn't do many Vids, I'll try to make up for it next year and bring you plenty of fun and entertainment.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
