SUMMARY:Bronze Pour Workshop 1 of 3\, 2022 POSTPONED!
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, June 25\, 1:00 pm – 4:00 pm\, Informational Session & Pattern Making Workshop (Class 1 of 3)\nSaturday\, July 9\, 9:00 am – 4:30 pm: Mold Making (continued Sunday if necessary) (Class 2 of 3)\nSaturday July 16\, 10 am – Evening: Mold Preparation & Pour (Class 3 of 3)\nInstructors: Hicks\, Bettenberg\, Brockman\, Zadworny\nClass size: 4 – 6\nRegistration Due June 11\, 2022\nWe’ll be casting silicon bronze into two-part (cope and drag) sand molds from your pattern. For beginners\, a flat-backed sculpted clay pattern is recommended (see photo). However\, if you have something specific that you’d like to cast\, please reach out to discuss the project before registration (costs may be over and above the basic class fee for individually tailored projects).\nNOTE: this is a three-Saturday workshop. Please do not register unless you are confident you will attend all three days. Pattern making\, mold making\, and casting metal are arts with no guarantees\, but you will certainly gain knowledge and hopefully have fun in this multi-disciplinary event.\nSaturday\, June 25 we will look at examples and talk about ways of creating a pattern to get a successful casting. We will also give an overview of mold making\, including sprue and vent systems.\nSaturday\, July 9 we’ll ram sand molds around your finished patterns. Bring lunch or there are places nearby.\nSaturday\, July 16 will be the day of the actual pour (weather permitting). First we will prepare the molds. You’ll have the opportunity to be on the pour crew. Before leaving\, you’ll cut the sprues and vents off your casting. You’re on your own for the finishing work. Bring lunch or there are places nearby.\nSafety First! You will need to bring: eye & ear protection\, leather gloves\, and wear proper clothing for metal work (leather\, cotton\, or wool).\nThis is an inclusive space. All identities are welcome. Please check your politics at the door. We’re here to have a good time and cast metal!\nTo register\, send your check made out to “The Guild of Metalsmiths” and contact information to:\nMarty Hicks\n2223 Stewart Ave.\nSt. Paul\, MN 55116\nContact Marty with questions: hixwerx@gmail.com or 651-492-0899\nAcceptance priority for the class is determined by postmark.
