Tried to heat it to fast??? You need to slow your roll a little old man

Has anyone ever tried Hydrocasting?...It's been awhile since I've done it, but it actually worked pretty dam good and it was super fast back in the day when doing rush gold crowns.

Any chance you could blame FedEx for losing the package?

Hydroscopic casting? I think that was a thing back in the days of Beauty Cast? I’ve never done it. I can normally burnout and cast gold crowns pretty fast anyway.
Just not this morning.

Yep, you're right 'hydrocopic casting'...it was beauty cast investment. Dam man, that memory of yours is spot on!!!

I’ve been around awhile, but not long enough to start forgetting stuff like Doug and Charles.

Really just a minor setback, it was re-waxed, cast, finished and out the door a couple hours later.

We’re not leaving until tomorrow and I’ve got some stuff to get done to make my life easier when I get back.

I didnt realize it was old fashioned. Measured packets; thats pretty modern! Beats scooping Cristobalite out of a can.

It’s a little old fashioned, I was using BeautyCast in the early 80’s with metal rings and ringliner. I never worked with bulk investments though they were certainly available. They prolly still are.
