Hello all on this thread.
The confusion came when it was said the wax form eliminated the need for a
mould, and I think Phil covered it. The wax still needed a `mould` around
it. A cavity for the bronze to be poured into. A one off, where the mould
has to be destroyed to release the bronze. Only one bronze per wax form.
Husband and I used to do one-offs in bronze years ago. He was the
sculptor,still is, I helped with the pouring. Now he works with paperclay.
We still have a two horse pack team and a grouping of three pronghorn
antelope in bronze.
Best wishes, Lela
