Recycled aluminum – first casting

I’m still tuning the new foundry but it’s working pretty well now.  I did my first real casting with it yesterday.  This was also my first full cycle project.  Design in CAD, Cut in foam on the CNC router, cast in aluminum.

I wish the finish was a little nicer.  Next time I’ll take more time coating it with drywall mud and ramming it in sand better.
