Been a hot minute since I have been on here, wanted to see how everyone was going. I’ve recently been working on casting rings out of my foundry. Sterling Silver Rings

Those rings look good. If you ever start casting scabbard or hilt fittings, im sure you'll have many takers in this forum!

Sterling Silver Rings Welcome back Good Sir, I see youve been improving your foundary skills. Lost wax casting? Lost PLA? 3d design and lost pla casting can be fun ...

I haven't been very active lately because work has picked up significantly and I'm spending a lot of time traveling between LA and Pueblo. That's really good news because more work means more money.

The ring was printed in pla and then sand casted!

It's a lot better than Pueblo. But there are worse places in CO. These look really neat. I've always wanted to have an iron ring though i suppose some silver would be alright too (used to have a HS ring that I bought for some stupidass reason and lost it).

Iron or steel would be a lot more of a pain and honestly would probably be easier to forge a ring out of it. Most forges and foundries you can buy off Amazon won’t get hot enough to melt steel to cast it. Get some tools though and you could hammer it into shape!

Awesome, I’ve never been to the west coast Its expensive, the urban areas are very sketchy (just avoid the cities wherever possible), and definitely not the center of the universe like the locals tend to believe. But the weather is nice, the smaller towns are very charming, and they are practically throwing money our way. Pueblo is nice overall, slower pace of life and in the middle of nowhere, which is perfect for my needs. I don't really pick the locations, it depends on the money. Because I want money. Preferably a lot of it. So give me money....
