In this video I will be showing you how you can easily turn 3d prints into metal by using the lost PLA shell method. This process uses materials that can be purchased at most hardware stores. These two way bolts were printed as a very thin shell, covered with Dap joint compound and then buried in sand and sodium silicate. Similar to the lost foam method, the thin PLA shells are vaporized as the metal flows into the mold leaving behind a nearly perfect casting.
Don't forget to check out my other videos for more casting projects!
