First of all you will need to print your object.
for example i made a ring and a necklace with my name printed with my ender 3.
MOLD- to create the mold i used a process that i saw on youtube, which consist in mixing silicon and corn starch.
i put my objects inside the fresh mold and i waited 1/2 hours
MELTING- I melted bullet weights fishing sinkers in a ceramic pottery outside, using camping stove and after the temperature of 350 celsius, 660 fahrenheit easily achievable I casted the metal in the mold.
FINAL RESULT

this was the first try I can certainly make better stuff, and I will try with other metal and maybe gold,
It’s my first post so i can post only 1 image and I had to summarise all the process.
I will make a detailed video on youtube with the explanation of each process.

Really cool project! I saw Punished Props do a similar technique, did you follow their video for this?

Superb idea and execution with equally great outcomes. What is the 3D printer which you have been using to print in metal? Also, I would be waiting for your 3D printed objects in gold.
