Plaster Mold Casting Plaster mold casting is used to make limited production parts. The part to be cast is placed into plaster, which hardens around the part forming a mold. The mold is carefully cut in half and the part inside removed. The two halves of the plaster mold are then reassembled to create a whole piece. Molten metal is poured into the mold. After the metal cools down, the plaster mold is broken and the metal piece is removed, cleaned, and polished. Cast parts using this technique range in weight from 30g to 7kg.
