How it works
Step 1: Book your investment appointment.
The process starts the first Thursday of each month (unless otherwise noted). Choose a 15-minute investment slot between 10 AM – 1 PM — one appointment per flask.
Step 2: Prep your waxes before you arrive.
Before your appointment, have your waxes weighed and attached to the flask base so your flask is ready to invest at the start of your appointment.
Step 3: Arrive and invest your flask.
Show up at your scheduled time and complete your investment. You’ll work independently, but our casting assistant will be nearby if you need a quick check. Once finished, your flask is added to the Friday casting lineup.
Step 4: Burnout overnight.
Your flask spends the night in the kiln — we’ll handle the burnout so it’s ready to pour the next day.
Step 5: Cast on Friday (1 PM – 2:30 PM).
Time to pour metal. Show up on time, stay for the session, and enjoy the best part of the process.
