How can I make a cannonball mold with the mixture?

  • 1 of 19: First, put the mixture in the mixture trough.
  • 2 of 19: Go into the forge building and turn to face the large workspace area.
  • 3 of 19: The mixture trough is the one that's at the far left end of the workspace.
  • 4 of 19: Use the mixture on it to get it properly mixed up and ready to use.
  • 5 of 19: Checking the logbook picture, you'll see that the smith is pouring mold into an empty molding box with a hemispherical model inside it.
  • 6 of 19: Go back to the workspace area and move an empty molding box onto the three-peg spot near where you're standing.
  • 7 of 19: Then get the hemispherical model that's on the left and put it inside the molding box.
  • 8 of 19: That looks right, so get some mixture from the trough and use it on the molding box.
  • 9 of 19: Then pick up the full molding box and put it on either of the two molding box slots over to the right, next to the bellows.
  • 10 of 19: Now, you might be tempted to make the other half of your cannonball mold the exact same way. But if you think about it, that won't be right.
  • 11 of 19: The completed cannonball mold will have to have a hole in it so that molten metal can be poured into it.
  • 12 of 19: Sure, the hemispherical model has a small hole in its top, but that won't actually make a hole in the mold.
  • 13 of 19: The hole in the hemispherical model is for you to stick something else into so as to make an actual hole in the mold.
  • 14 of 19: Look to the right of the pegs where you set up your empty mold boxes to find a conical model.
  • 15 of 19: You'll need to use it with the hemispherical model in order to make a mold half with a hole in it.
  • 16 of 19: NOTE: If you've already make both mold halves without holes, pick up one of your full molding boxes and click it on the mixture trough to put the mixture back in it.
  • 17 of 19: Make your second mold half exactly as you did the first one, except put the conical model into the top of the hemispherical model before you put the mixture in.
  • 18 of 19: Also, you'll have to remove the conical model before you can pick up the full molding box.
  • 19 of 19: After both mold halves are made, put the one with the hole in it on top of the other one to form a complete cannonball mold.
