The casting demo was a great success this weekend with about 45 people in attendance. The school will definitely be running at least one bronze casting short course and will add a casting furnace and setup to the tools available to students at the school. Details of course dates and outlines forthcoming.

A huge thanks to both Quill and Peter for doing a fantastic job showing off their skills. Great weekend!
