@howthingsarebuildd: This traditional method is called sand casting. The workers create a perfect negative imprint of the garden gate in a bed of specially packed sand. Then, they carefully pour the glowing molten metal directly into this sand mold. Once it cools and solidifies, the sand is broken away to reveal the heavy, solid iron gate. It’s an ancient and fascinating technique! #sandcasting #metalwork #foundry #ironwork #manufacturing
