Casting a Fire Ant Colony with Aluminum (Anthill Art Cast #127)
A fairly large fire ant colony is cast with molten aluminum. The surface mound of this colony was not built up very high, probably due to the recent cold weather, but from the area of it, it seemed to be a large colony. I melted around 25 lb of aluminum, lost a few pounds due to spillage in the furnace and ended up with a cast weighing 18.7 lb and a few pounds left over. The depth of the cast is 20 in, making it the 4th deepest of the fire ant colonies I’ve cast.
