I'm new to casting, live in a very rural area. No one around casting. I would appreciate the opportunity to watch someone casting. Not afraid to travel to learn.
THANKS

What kind of setup do ya have?
Bottom pour, ladle, molds?
This is the place to ask questions.
First thing is safety, cotton pants, cotton shirt with long sleeves.
Boots that go high enough to allow your pants to cover the tops of your boots.
Gloves, please use gloves.
Face shield if you like, NO WATER ANY WHERE NEAR LIQUID LEAD!!!
Pre heat your mold by sitting it on the edge of your pot or on a hot plate, I use an old electric pot.
Some others will chime in soon.
