All that glitters is not gold

I have been trying to cast with Bronze Manganese and hate it. It doesn’t flow like gold and silver when poured and the melt down takes forever. The Bronze castings always come out porous. I have found the perfect solution! 14k gold casting alloy. Casting alloy doesn't have any actual gold in it but is used to cut the karat of gold when making alloys therefore it is smooth, melts quickly and shares many of the same qualities of gold. I made a burnout acorn in the casting alloy and I love it. I can now offer this as an option to my casting students so that they can use it to get the look of gold without spending a fortune on gold.
