How a Cast Iron Product is Made
Firstly, we decide what we want to produce.
We have resolved to develop an updated version of our school coat hook. Although the standard model has been effective for many years, largely thanks to its superior number display, the portrait-oriented viewing position has presented certain limitations. Introducing a square window to this model, we anticipate the opportunity to craft a broad array of new designs.
Making the First Template
The initial phase of tool creation involves designing a model template. For example, a wooden prototype of a coat hook is crafted. This prototype is subsequently pressed into specially prepared sand to create impressions on both sides. Following this, molten iron is poured into the mould. After the iron solidifies, the mould is broken apart to unveil the first casting.
The First Casting
The casting looks rough and uneven due to the wooden mould used. Although wood isn’t perfect for smooth castings, it’s beneficial for making initial prototypes. Here, it enabled the production of the first mould. The subsequent step involves refining the casting through grinding to achieve the desired finish. This will result in a smooth and polished prototype, forming the foundation for our new hook design.
Begin Casting
The coat hook, now cleaned and polished, showcases its freshly squared centre. This cast iron hook is primed for recasting, facilitating the production of additional hooks. Each will be hand-finished, underscoring our dedication to authentic hand-cast craftsmanship. Consequently, while our products will bear resemblance, each will have a unique character. This principle is applied across our full line of cast iron hooks, handles, and hinges.
The Final Hook
The coat hook is now complete. As evident, the finish matches that of the first image, resulting in a square window. During the creation of the tooling for this coat hook, a landscape variant was also produced. Consequently, we now offer three distinctive styles of this Black Coat Hook Portrait, Square, Landscape, exclusive to our collection. These will be available in stock soon, once the artwork is finalized.
