Cast the woman's silver fallback ring - came out perfectly. Cast her gold - one gap. :( I think better sprueing will fix.
.@BrowningMachine I bought 25 pennyweight = 1.38 oz
that should be enough for 2 rings + then some.
This says 8 gram

But there is also the issue that you can't cast JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT. Need to fill sprue & leave a "button".

So (round numbers) 9g (me) + 7g (her) = 16g I bought 25 pw = 37.5 g so cast hers first, remove sprue, cast mine.

@BrowningMachine if I find that mine doesn't have enough extra mass in sprue and button, I can go to pawnshop / coin store and buy a bit. - Show replies
