To create a figure from aluminum, a foam model is used with a small allowance (slightly larger size) for finishing. The essence of the method lies in the fact that the foam model is placed in the sand to a shallow depth, and a channel leading to the surface is left for filling. The flow of molten metal very quickly melts the foam and fills the form that it occupied in the sand.

There are a lot of ideas for creativity, aluminum can be melted on its own, it is available in the form of scrap (soda cans and beer cans), and the foam can be processed well to create different shapes.
