If you've done much sand casting, you've probably dealt with trapped air, incomplete fills, extra cleanup, or having to remelt a casting that just didn't turn out. It's all part of learning the process—but I wanted to find a way to make that part easier. That's where the Hex-Cast came from. The Hex-Cast is an all-in-one vacuum-assisted sand casting system designed specifically for jewelry casting. Instead of having a separate vacuum pump, hoses, and everything spread across your bench, the vacuum system is built directly into the unit, creating a cleaner and more compact setup. I designed the Hex-Cast because I wanted something that fit naturally into my own workflow. Whether you're making one custom piece or casting several parts in a row, the goal is simple: spend more time making jewelry and less time fighting your equipment. Why Choose the Hex-Cast? Integrated Vacuum System The vacuum system is built directly into the unit, so there's no need for a separate pump, extra hoses, or custom plumbing. Compact Footprint Designed to take up very little bench space while keeping your casting area organized and ready to use. Built for Jewelry Sand Casting The Hex-Cast wasn't adapted from another tool—it was designed from the ground up specifically for jewelry sand casting. Cleaner Workspace With everything contained in one unit, there's less equipment cluttering your bench and fewer things to set up before each casting session. Simple to Use Plug it in, place your flask on the silicone pad, switch it on, and you're ready to cast.

Important Information The Hex-Cast is designed specifically for jewelry sand casting and is not intended for investment (lost wax) casting, industrial vacuum systems, or other high-duty vacuum applications. To help maximize performance and motor life, do not operate the Hex-Cast under continuous vacuum for more than three (3) minutes at a time. If additional runtime is needed, allow the motor to cool completely before beginning another casting cycle. Every Hex-Cast is individually assembled, tested, inspected, and assigned a unique serial number before it ships. Because each unit is assembled by hand, you may notice minor cosmetic variations that do not affect performance or functionality. Designed, Built & Supported by GomeowCreations The Hex-Cast started as a project for my own jewelry bench. I wanted a compact, integrated vacuum-assisted casting system that was simple to use, didn't take up a lot of space, and solved the problems I kept running into with other setups. After a lot of designing, prototyping, testing, and refining, that project became the Hex-Cast. Every unit is assembled, tested, and inspected before it leaves my shop, and if I update the documentation or create new tutorials, you'll always be able to access the latest versions online.
