I found my neighbour’s iron guttering on the rocks (the photo shows where it used to be)
and I took it to Scottish Sculpture Workshops. Where we melted it, along with other scrap iron (which Ross nobly ‘cracked’ while I did the sand bed for the furnace)
The molten iron was poured into a two-part sand mould of a small vessel form (and some other moulds)
This is the iron piece with runner and riser, tomorrow I’ll cut the extraneous bits off, but I rather like the patterns it makes in the sun.
