The Process: Bowl Or Freeform Mold
I can supply you with a sand mold for you to carve into and customize! It is easy to do and I can teach you how with a brief demonstration. You can then take your sand mold home or to a garage/workspace for you to finish. I will then take your sand mold when completed and cast it in either aluminum or iron depending on your choice. You can then finish the metal or add an additional cost to have myself finish it for you with a variety of finishing options at your discretion. Please email me if you have any questions or concerns about this opportunity! A small bowl mold ($110 base price) or a larger sculptural freeform sand mold ($150 base price) are the available options.
