I want to learn how to cast a copy of a bronze cleat from my old boat
(I believe it is silicon bronze). I live in New England. Is there a
book on the subject that can get me going? Some other path to get me
started? I want to add this skill to my hobbies, and figure it'd be
hard to screw this part up as a first try...
Thanks for any suggestions. Grant
