Hi I'm Rai
Â
Over ten years ago, I discovered my love for sand casting in my home workshop. A few years back, I began sharing starter guides on YouTube.
Since then, those videos have gained hundreds of thousands of views and helped makers around the world take their first steps. I created this site to offer further clear, direct guidance—saving you the trial, error, and frustration of starting on your own.
If you’re ready to cast your first custom piece from scratch, you’re in the right place!
