Worm Holes by Jack Schmidling

Fine silver surface by [email protected]
I am going to be casting sterling silver rings for enameling. In doing the homework for this I have found a source from one book that says the surface of the model exits the cast with a layer of fine silver without copper. If this is true, it would eliminate the need of further preparation of the...
