The price of metal continues to rise
dramatically due to supply and demand. In addition
the US dollars decline against other currencies has
increased our costs (most metals are imported). Dunken
has held their prices where they could. Dunken expects
that they will have no choice, but to raise prices
again in 2008.
The Dunken Company is dedicated to bringing
you the finest in home casting equipment. Whether

of interesting molds to choose from.

Hobby casting is a family activity
and is a great way to share some wholesome quality
time with your kids. Our molds are not toys however
and we always recommend adult supervision for any
child under the age of 14. Always cast in a well ventilated
area and take sensible precautions when handling hot
metal.
