Magnesium Silicate ballast is the refractory you bury a Filamet™ part in to hold its shape while it sinters. It moves easily as the part shrinks and leaves a superior finish after sintering, and it can be reused many times.
Bury the print in a crucible with this ballast. For Bronze and Copper, cover with Sintering Carbon, then place the crucible in the kiln and start the program.
