I'm thinking about getting a custom pommel for a sword of mine, to make it more of my own. After coming up with a design, I think the best way to make it would be to cast it, however I lack the ability to cast metals myself. Are there any companies you guys know of (preferably in the US) that could take a master of mine and create a casting of it? I'm thinking the best metal to have it cast in would probably be bronze as it is a decently workable metal that is heavy enough not to mess up the balance of the blade, but I'm no expert, so maybe there's a better option out there. For any of you who are interested, here is my rough sketch of the pommel design, whether or not I go through with getting it made remains to be seen.

You could try contacting Jeffrey Robinson; he goes by brotherbanzai here on the forum and does some pretty amazing bronze casting works.
