2nd casting mounted 1
I just finished mounting my second attempt at casting with aluminum. For those who want to give it a try, here's the procedure: First you drink the beer, second you carve the model out of Styrofoam, third you melt the beer cans, fourth you bury the model carved out of Styrofoam in sand, fifth you pour the beer cans (now melted aluminum) in the sand and....
Poof! The hot metal evaporates the foam, the metal replaces it and vola! You've cast a statue!

Now that was easy, wasn't it? :-)
