Today I cast something I said I never would... A sword. I don't know if I said that, but it's a more dramatic way to start a description, right? Anyways, it's a "bronze age" era sword, which were traditionally CAST in bronze (copper and tin alloy). I'm doing it in aluminum because i'm cheap, and i'm altering the gating system a bit in an attempt to improve the surface finish.

This was done with equipment from Greg the Sword Casting Guy, see him in a "How to Make Everything" video here:    • Casting a Bronze Sword
