    That is a surprisingly good casting in those conditions, even with a ceramic mold. The video cut off way too early.

    It is indeed a fascinating process!!! Very skilled workers!!

    Of course we have no idea the quality of the material they used, it could be fine, but for sure they do have the process figured out!!!
