    Okay, the vacuum chamber lid is complete & I'm ready to mix/pour investment on my Reishii project. But wait...
    I don't have any flasks large enough.
    I need 4. I have a food grade container from some Costco peanuts, but need 3 more: 7" diameter, 6" tall.
    I thought about using some scrap duct metal.
    Thoughts from those who do lost wax, full investment?
    I don't have suspendaslurry, i'm using SRS Silk.

    Cheap gallon water jugs. Cut em down to size. Also hit up your local goodwill or salvation army. I get tons of disposable cooking crap outta those stores. Like pots and pans etc. Those silicon baking dishes are awesome for wax and investment work.
