I have learned enough about pewter casting to make myself very dangerous. I have made tokes and the strap ends to my favorite belt.  2006 a friend set up a period lost wax  casting class, which I took. The class was very interesting but the weather did not favor us. Every once in awhile I try soap stone carving. Right now I am having sprue trouble and I have put things away.
