Buying blow Delft

After the recent discussion on delft clay casting it has made me curious to look into it. My main question is about the type of torches which can be used to melt the metal suitably for pouring from the crucible. I currently only have a micro torch that I use for everything I do, and wondered if this is suitable for melting metal quantities for smaller castings? If not, would something like a blow torch from a hardware store suffice? I just don't have the space for the larger one typically used, and have to pack everything up once I'm done playing. Also, I know Jason just purchased the clay and rings, but was curious to know if it is worth buying the kit with the DVD? I've seen all the vids on Youtube, and a few others, and it really seems simple enough in theory - does the DVD cover anything more advanced than simple designs? If not, I think I will be taking Jasons route. Any advice much appreciated! I just bought the clay and an aluminium ring. I found plenty of resources on line, like YouTube that gave me the process from start to finish, and any queries I had were answered as best as they could be on here. I'll probably look up more info abou tit before I give it ago, but I didn;t really see the need for the DVD based on what I have found out already. Thanks Lucinda - that was what I thought. I was just wondering if anyone who had the DVD had watched it, because if it details how to do more detailed castings I might be interested - all the ones on I've found on the web seem to be about casting quite basic shapes. And yes - Anyone who has experience with melting can you get away with a micro torch, or will it not sustain a high enough level of heat whilst melting and pouring? I tried using my microtorch to melt the silver and it was awful, I couldn't keep all of the silver molten I've had it two years though so it may just be wearing out! So I bought the max flame hand torch from Cooksons hurrah for freepost!! Product Code: B which has a max temperature of degrees with an adjustable flame and does the job perfectly adequately. Be sure to let us know how you get on Paul, it took me all week to get the hang of this and there is still room for improvement! There have been other posts on this topic. I think it might have been titled melting scrap. And George said there that the DIY store torches are fine to use. They reach the same temperature as the one at Cooksons. Would be interested to know how you get on if you get a DIY store one Paul. A 'proper' torch is on my list but a way off yet! Thank you Linda - I didn't realise it had already been covered. I think I'll first give it a go with my existing torch, but suspect it isn't quite powerful enough to melt the quantities I will need for casting bearing in mind the extra needed for sprues etc. Do you know which one you'll be using? Hi Paul I've used the Taymar T bought from Homebase and it has been fine, it was just the job for me! I think it should do the job for the amount I want to melt, but obviously I'll have to rethink if not! Thanks for the advice! I will be paying a visit to the DIY shops one evening this week to peruse the blow-torches. Sounds like an aging showgirl! Thanks Jason, but am I right in thinking that is a bigger setup that I'll struggle to play with indoors? I can imagine my OH telling me off for it now! I don't have a workbench or anthing, and do most of my work on our dining table or coffee table! You're obviously not ready yet for ole Roxy - especially with her antiquesexchange :rofl:. Paul, It is the same principle with delft whether casting a simple item or something incredibly intricate. I have had no problems and just watched the videos on youtube. It is certainly cheaper than buying the kit just buying rings and clay. As for handheld torches I have never had any luck with any of them, the ones I have used do smelt the ore eventually but I have never been able to cast as it simply doesn't get fluid enough to fill the mould. Also the handheld torches are rather dirty, the silver in the scorifier always seems to soot up. You have none of this with oxy propane. You can pick up roxy rotherburgers relatively cheaply if you shop around. Will any Oxy Propane torch do? I was of the impression you could get torches with different sized tips, which I would be interested in if I was to get one. Trouble is when I look on cooksons or anywhere else, I just see a load of bits and no explanation, and I basically don't know what I am doing. Not that I am looking seriously at the moment, my torch has served me well and has certainly done the job so far! I noticed exactly the same thing Lucinda - I have used a couple whilst on the couple of courses I have done, but I never took note of their setups or anything since I was not interested in them at the time. In fact, pretty pleased with the results:. I might be wrong but that was my understanding. As for actually casting anything properly yet, I haven't really given it a proper go yet - just too busy I think I'm home this weekend so am planning to play around a bit but no doubt it will end up being busy with other boring things that have to be done cleaning, shopping etc Incidentally - how long should it take to melt silver - I know there are variables, like how much you are trying, but if someone can give me any tangible indication that would be great, and would let me assess the torch I bought. I have done a bit of this type of casting in my class - a small hand torch won't produce enough heat in the flame to get the metal really hot to melting point I would suggest. Normally we use a blowtorch with a wide head to produce a bushy flame. The metal has to be heated till it spins and then the flame held over it while you pour very quickly. Steady hands and strong nerves required and molten metal very dangerous if lands on you! A lot of the canister torches suffer from flaring until they've warmed up; I wouldn't tip either of my Bernzomatics until they had run for a minute or two. Sievert's easier though, just fractionally less portable. When I read the instructions which I rarely do , it did say to leave it on for a minute on a stable surface for at least one minute - just like you suggest Peter. When I've done this it hasn't flared at all yet. Jason - the couple of times I have used it, although it has taken a while to get there, the silver has rolled as you suggest, so I think it may be ok - just not had enough time to play properly yet. I cannot really upgrade due to lack of space as well as the safety implications - one day we'll get a bigger house where I can have a room all to myself for all manner of jewellery things!
