Steps to Casting an Aluminum Anthill

Here's a step-by-step guide to creating your own aluminum anthill casting:

1. Locate a large anthill. Avoid trying to cast small hills as they often fill up with sand before the metal can flow.
2. Build up the sides around the anthill to maintain head pressure, which ensures the molten aluminum flows properly.
3. Form a bowl shape using sand with the entrance hole in the center, preventing sand from spilling into the hole.
4. Once the aluminum cools, flip the structure over to use the dam as a solid base.
