I worked on my backstaff piece on Sunday and prepared another handle mold for pouring today. On Monday morning I went to pep-set and made my sixth handle mold, I’m getting pretty fast at making them now. I’m done with all six now, and after lunch I got the chance to have them all poured with engine iron. They all poured out great and broke up easily. I’ll modify the future molds because I had some leakage, but overall, I’m pretty happy with the results.
In my interview, coordinator Beth Lipman told me that it takes about a month before you feel that you know what you're doing. I would say that this is absolutely true!
