This section contains a number of articles I wrote and put together for my Foundry class at California State University Long Beach and other seminars I have done. Along with information on the various steps in bronze casting, I am including the projects that I have assigned to my students which contain step-by-step instructions and my be of some interest. Note: my original intent in writing these articles was to create a handbook for my students. Though the majority is written by myself, I did copy some information from the internet and have attempted to credit those quotes. Never-the-less, if I missed a quote and you see something that was from your website, please let me know and I will either delete it or gladly put in a link to your site. |
