Buckle - MDF - 07-27-2011

Hi Guys,
some days ago I was asked to show some of my work compared with original (and my reconstruction process) so I will share with you some recent work I'm doing these days: a lost wax bronze roman buckle.

The originals buckles

...and my way to made it...

Fantastic work Marcus!

I like the "tree" of buckles to let you make so many in one casting!


Re: Buckle - Gaius Colletti - 07-28-2011

Very nice, what are you using them for? Or do you sell/supply them?


Re: Buckle - PhilusEstilius - 07-28-2011

Those buckles look very good so are you using centrifical or vacum methods in the casting.


Re: Buckle - MDF - 07-28-2011

Thanks guys,
yes Brian, I use a vacuum machine for these...is indispensable for details.
Matt, these are not for me but I made for an historical group and I do not know how they use them...sorry.
