Iron Pour Supplies

The following is a helpful list of tools and supplies that are frequently used by our students. When packing, consider your working habits and the tools and equipment that Mesalands has available. Remember that all Mesalands tools and equipment are communal and get frequent use. Most common regret: not bringing a grinder or hand tools. If excess luggage is a constraint, please make special arrangements with Professor Kiser ahead of time. PLEASE PLAN TO BRING YOUR OWN EQUIPMENT OR OTHER NECESSARY TOOLS.

We strongly encourage you to inventory and label your tools before you arrive at MCC Hot Iron. While we are not concerned with theft, unlabeled tools may easily be misplaced or lost in the shared studio space.
