I guess I could use the burnout oven to melt the metal … But too late! I had already ordered an electrical melting pot that is made for this purpose and will hold a bigger flask to melt the silver (or copper). I found an affordable Chinese made pot that was reviewed positively online and is supposed to do the job. Here is a link to the maker with the misleading and name “ToAuto Tool” (click here).
I turned it on and it heats up! Cool! We’ll see how long it will l(c)ast …
The more Youtube videos I am watching, the more I am also getting excited to do other projects with the equipment. I will definitely cast some silver/gold rings at some point. It will be fun to design them in a 3D software, print and cast them Exciting!
