Three Fire Ant Colony Casting Session, Part 2: Casting in the Daylight for a Change

Part two of the three fire ant colony aluminum casting session. This one produced lots of smoke during the cast which made it difficult for me to see. Like a true professional I persevered and finished the cast with perfection (other than spilling a little bit of aluminum). It turned out pretty nice! Part 3 coming soon.
