Casting a Fish Bone with Molten Aluminum. 3d scan > enlarge 2x > 3d print with wax filament > coat in ceramic shell > wax burnout > aluminum pour
Before and after pics of the cast from my last video where I 3d scan, enlarge, 3d print then ceramic shell cast a catfish fin bone with aluminum. Turned out awesome!
I got a recommendation from @grok to make my catch phrase "nature is metal." Not bad for an AI but......no thanks, I'm good! I'll see what I can come up with. 🤣

Anxiously waiting for X to become a serious competitor to YouTube's long form video format. Until then, fuck it I'll upload my latest full video and see what happens.
This is a research paper out of San Diego State University that I contributed a few fire ant colony casts for. What does it mean? I have no clue but the pictures are cool. https://t.co/aL2zIY2N2p
This is one from the three casts I did in November. Cast #129, 10.5 lb, 17" depth. I'm finishing up another one from that pour and will likely sell both on eBay soon. Also have videos for both. Nice cast, decent size and not too heavy. Pics are of front/back/left side/right side
