Why am I posting a metal casting video in the 3DP section?

I don't do metals casting, but I find it fascinating. This guy does metal casting in a spare bedroom in small apartment in Europe somewhere. Everything he does seems quite unconventional, but it seems to work:

 
I can see the divorce rate going up when some guys start casting stuff using SWMBO's kitchen appliances.

Ya, but I wonder if the same effect occurs when some guy is making kitchen stuff with the kitchen stuff......

I'm not brave enough to even try.

Heck, I once bought a little toaster oven mostly to dry out dessicants. I bought it myself for myself. I kept it in the basement work shop - aka man cave. One day, I came home and it was on the counter in the kitchen toasting bread. I tried to reclaim it and got the icy stare of impending death..... Then she slowly said..... You.... told.... me.... I.... can't.... use.... a.... chisel.... as.... a.... screw..... driver.... :oops:

This is why I'm divorced and have lived alone for over 20 years. My girlfriend of 8 years lives in her house and I live in mine. I told here if either of us moved in together, it last for a month.... that's it. So its best this way, even though once and awhile she brings it up and I just say, you know me and you know what would happen lol
 
Yah, some of them just will not leave! Mine says, I am much better then the first model she had. We do have the odd disagreement, sometimes not more then 4 or 5 a week/day, and life goes on
Yes, I do have my "own" toaster oven in the the shop, she has her own tools and 5foot high tool chest. You can not take her into a tool store, the gun shop, or the fabric store, as at least one hand will be full when leaving.
And to maybe get back to subject, I hope to be able to do some casting again one day.
