Carried on with the second rubber mould of the
yam 2 and finished it tonight, so should be able to wax it tomorrow. Now working on the Muramura plant – decided
to cut off the leaves (11 in total) and separately invest these, coating them
in wax and then welding them on to the stem separately later. We have waxed the stem and the few remaining
leaves at the top and so will invest these separately in the hope that it will
all burn out satisfactorily. David and
Emmanuel suggest two pouring cups top and bottom of the piece – the main pouring
cup mounted to one side of the stem to equally distribute the molten bronze
down to the very end of the plant. Hope
it works.
