Forging creations with skill and mettle.
With molten metal and sand as my tools,
I shape the future with my hands, strong and true.

Molding intricate shapes with steady hand.
With precision and care, I craft each mold,
Ensuring quality that will never fold.

I melt the metals with an expert gaze.
Guided by knowledge, experience, and skill,
I pour the molten essence, my purpose to fulfill.
I am the guardian of metallurgical alchemy,
Balancing alloys with unwavering accuracy.
Through science and art, I shape the cast,
Creating strength that will forever last.

With perseverance and dedication, I never recoil.
In the foundry's crucible, I find my pride,
Creating pieces that stand the test of time.

Preserving the craft with unwavering ambition.
Through innovation and timeless technique,
I leave an indelible mark that others seek.

A torchbearer of history, with passion untamed.

I honor the legacy of the foundryman's vocation.

A craftsman devoted to the call.
