No bubbles


Here is a shot of the torso-casting set-up. Another possible defect in casting wax is air entrapment - bubbles forming from pouring a molten wax into the mold. To help eliminate that, I would fill the mold from the bottom up, but I wouldn't open the valve at the bottom until all the air in the pipe "burped" out.
