casting a small silver heart

help me out. Do I need borax for melting down .999 silver coins? I wanna do a simple open cast of a heart. Simply form it in clay, press it into the casting sand. Melt down 2, or 3 pure silver bullion 1Oz coins with a blowtorch and pour it in.

Nothing could go wrong, right?

Pic rel is what I'm missing. Please laugh at my misery, you can't buy borax in Germany anymore.

    I don't think you need borax for such a small amount. Buy a frame for the sand as well.
    Why can't germans buy borax

      Yeah I got a wooden frame, but I thought maybe instead using a metal kitchen bowl, then heat it up with the sand in the oven to evaporate moisture and make the molten silver not cool too quickly.

      Borax became illegal lmao

      Btw the girl said just lets be friends, to which I replied this cowboy rides alone and doesn't need no friends, only a partner cowgirl. Don't even need a F

      Anyways I'll still try this project and gift either a silver heart to my dream wife or a silver bullet to my brain

              my dude. Im op. Im going trough divorce right now after 8 years. Am filing for having full costudy since ex is a crazy b***h. She's in a psychward as I type this.

              Thought I'd date single moms coming from a similiar background. Wanted to gift this girl a silver heart on which is placed a second smaller heart. Because she told me the reason why she kept her baby girl. That touched my soul in a way, I've the same feelings towards my son. But note, I wrote 'girl'. She's totally immature.

              Women these days Am I rite my dudes? Anyways I know exactly what to do next. I'll send some flowers with a text to an extended female colleauge, she's also a single mom. Both our kids go to the same elementary school.

              Also I need pussy so damn much, but am disgusted by having sex without real love.

          we dated a month, I thought there was a connection. In retroperspective it's better to depart instead of simping trough a 'friendship' with her. Stupid b***hes nowadays I swear. From now on I state what I need and require on day one. Am sick and tired of these games

      Borax cannot be sold as a cleaning agent anywhere in the European Union (including the UK).
      Over exposure to borax can screw up fetuses or something. I don't know.
      It's legal to use and, if the packaging doesn't advertise it as a cleaner, it's legal to sell but almost nobody sells it.
