Artisans begin by completely covering an original sculpture with specially formulated silicone or latex to capture every nuance of the original sculpture. Once completed, the coating is allowed to set. It is reinforced with a fiberglass shell, producing a strong, rigid, lightweight mold. After setting, the mold is cut in half to remove the original sculpture and sectioned into pieces to facilitate the remaining steps in the casting process.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Head\" id=\"_ctl0__ctl2_dnnTITLE_lblTitle\"\u003eStep 2: Making a Wax Likeness From the Mold\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e A thin coating of wax is hand painted onto the inside of each piece of the sectioned mold. This is done to ensure that the wax completely captures every nuance of the mold. After setting, individual pieces are assembled into the major sections of the mold; e.g., base, torso, extremities, etc. Molten wax is poured into the assembled molds, which are rotated throughout the process to allow wax to build up on the primer coating. The process is continued until the wax reaches a uniform thickness of roughly 3\/8 in all areas. After the wax has cooled, the latex and silicone outer shell is removed from each section, revealing exact wax likenesses of the original sculpture. Artisans buff and finish them, removing any imperfections arising the molding process.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Head\" id=\"_ctl0__ctl3_dnnTITLE_lblTitle\"\u003eStep 3: Making a Casting Mold From the Wax Likeness\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The wax likenesses are each dipped into a mixture of plaster and sand. This process is repeated several times using increasingly course sand and plaster mixtures. Each layer must be allowed to dry before additional layers can be applied. After several layers are applied and allowed to set, a thick, a rigid clay shell is formed around the wax likeness. Often referred to as investment casting, the clay shell, once complete, is made ready for bronze casting by artisans who apply runners and vents to the shell to permit molten bronze to enter the shell and hot gases and excess metal to escape.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Head\" id=\"_ctl0__ctl4_dnnTITLE_lblTitle\"\u003eStep 4: Burn Out Losing the Wax\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The clay shells, which have now been allowed to harden around the wax likenesses, are placed upside down in a kiln and baked at high temperatures.

Artisans begin by completely covering an original sculpture with specially formulated silicone or latex to capture every nuance of the original sculpture. Once completed, the coating is allowed to set. It is reinforced with a fiberglass shell, producing a strong, rigid, lightweight mold. After setting, the mold is cut in half to remove the original sculpture and sectioned into pieces to facilitate the remaining steps in the casting process.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Head\" id=\"_ctl0__ctl2_dnnTITLE_lblTitle\"\u003eStep 2: Making a Wax Likeness From the Mold\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA thin coating of wax is hand painted onto the inside of each piece of the sectioned mold. This is done to ensure that the wax completely captures every nuance of the mold. After setting, individual pieces are assembled into the major sections of the mold; e.g., base, torso, extremities, etc. Molten wax is poured into the assembled molds, which are rotated throughout the process to allow wax to build up on the primer coating. The process is continued until the wax reaches a uniform thickness of roughly 3\/8 in all areas. After the wax has cooled, the latex and silicone outer shell is removed from each section, revealing exact wax likenesses of the original sculpture. Artisans buff and finish them, removing any imperfections arising the molding process.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Head\" id=\"_ctl0__ctl3_dnnTITLE_lblTitle\"\u003eStep 3: Making a Casting Mold From the Wax Likeness\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe wax likenesses are each dipped into a mixture of plaster and sand. This process is repeated several times using increasingly course sand and plaster mixtures. Each layer must be allowed to dry before additional layers can be applied. After several layers are applied and allowed to set, a thick, a rigid clay shell is formed around the wax likeness. Often referred to as investment casting, the clay shell, once complete, is made ready for bronze casting by artisans who apply runners and vents to the shell to permit molten bronze to enter the shell and hot gases and excess metal to escape.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Head\" id=\"_ctl0__ctl4_dnnTITLE_lblTitle\"\u003eStep 4: Burn Out Losing the Wax\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe clay shells, which have now been allowed to harden around the wax likenesses, are placed upside down in a kiln and baked at high temperatures.
