I'm not the best carver, but if we can make arrangements to meet, I
might be willing to take this on, depending upon the complexity of
the pieces. Or I would be willing to teach you.

If you'd like to teach yourself, you might read these files in the
Florilegium. The first article in the casting-msg file is what I
originally learned from.

Ummm. I only cast in pewter, although this file does detail how to
use similar methods to do other metals.
