Dear Dr. Lee:  I am a sculptor interested in traditional metlcasting. 
I am searching for objects or even practicioners of traditional Asian
metalcasting techniques in Korea.  I plan to visit Korea in March of
this year.  I have identified some bells and sculptures, but wonder if
you have any suggestions or know of any Korean artisans working in
traditional methods [IE: Clay molds]  Thank you. -- Ferrum nostrum est
tam ethice quam physice. Fundo spiritus est. Ferrum nostrum non est
ferrum vulgi. Orchides forum trahite: cordes et mentes veniant.
