Casting window frames

So, casting the window frames in bronze might work out as planned, if we get really lucky.

Anyone can give advice about the best material for creating a plug (?) for the casting flask? We are talking about something like 1/2 inch thick frames for the big windows in the deck house.

MDF?

Plywood? (we did try that but it warped)

What kind of plywood did you use? There is that kind that is water resistant and generally quite sturdy. Forgot the name…

You are right. It should work if we use ordinary birch plywood without voids and of even thickness of the layers. Maybe Per can help me make them in no time…
