    If you're new here welcome! My name is Laura Mullen Vermilye and I am an iron casting metal artist. Being a cast iron artist is an interesting - and at times tough journey, but the rewards far exceed all challenges. While working with cast iron to create my art I am exposed to an amazing community of artists who are as dedicated and passionate as I am. The cast iron art culture is a major influence in my life and on my work and I want to share this artistic adventure with anyone who is interested in seeing hard working people make amazing art with a hot and dangerous material. To do this, I make vlog style videos on this channel that chronicle the artwork that I am currently making and my journeys in Metalsmithing and iron casting. In between casting and metal art videos you may also see some behind the scenes footage of me roaming around the heart of the Midwest and the Ozarks. Thank you to all you folks that are as interested in my small metal project as you are in my cast iron art! Thanks for tunin' in, and as always - I love you.

    Lovely work! You should do a second one and send to Jason - I would not be surprised if he'd send a big red one in return... ;)

      Hi Daniel, I’m finally getting around to responding to comments! Thanks for always taking the time to watch my videos and always commenting with such positivity. Whenever I get discouraged I think about you and a few others on here and remember that I’m just making these videos for you!

    Nicely done! Is ther a reason you went with doing the strips vs. cutting V's into the sterling silver and "folding" it into the shape and then soldering the joints?

    • @CastIronGypsy
      @CastIronGypsy  8 місяців тому +1

      Hey WreckDriver99!! I used strips instead of scoring and bending because I wasn’t confident that I would be able to consistently cut a ‘V’ in that long of a length. Maybe next time I’ll have a mini mill and a “V” bit!!😂🎉

    I think this is my favorite mini tool so far. Love ya kiddo.
    Question: do you use oxy/acetylene or oxy/propane, for your torch?

    • @CastIronGypsy
      @CastIronGypsy  8 місяців тому +2

      I’m actually using an acetylene torch.
      No one had complained yet about how my torch hose is the wrong color yet lol!
      When I went to get a tank and hose to go on my regulator and torch hand piece the welding supplier was out of the red hose so he gave me green but do not be fooled- it’s not oxygen!

    It's good to see you start another one; this was fun. Blade breaking could have been in the mainline edit... Just sayin'!

    • @CastIronGypsy

      You are too funny!! I’ll take this into consideration in the future episodes (I’m still editing them) and maybe leave in more saw blade breaks!🤣

    • @CastIronGypsy
      @CastIronGypsy  8 місяців тому +1

      The “crock pot” (cauldron) has an acid called sparex inside and kept warm.
      The sparex solution removes any leftover flux residue and any oxidation that comes from when the metal is heated up.😊
