After a weekend of experimenting with his kid's long forgotten MOON SAND (tm) stash, HammerSpace owner David Dalton discovered that this bizarre play-material can be used for quick & easy sand-casting! To celebrate this new discovery, he has designed a MOON SAND (tm) casting class for those interested in learning this clever process. This class will be held several times throughout the year at HammerSpace. Check the online CALENDAR PAGE for future class dates if you are unable to attend our first session in February. This is a great class to take with your kids or grandkids, giving both you and them a fun introduction to molding & casting.
