Size? product material? and prolly more I may be unaware of.

Sorry, my burnout oven followed the wild geese many moons ago.

I purchased a Kerr centrifugal casting unit on E-Bay several years ago for $75, but a previous owner had melted off

the clip that holds the crucible in place and I haven't been able to find a replacement part.

Thanks.
Scott, I figured I'd see if anyone was doing it before I got into the details. I own the copyright on these and need some more cast. Most will be what's called brown/white, or imitation silver, and maybe 25 will be silver. Weight per piece is just under 1/2 ounce. I have some waxes, and the mold.
