The techniques are ancient. I believe the figure was gravity cast, just poured in. Silver 1991, i can do better know, 9-10 inches tall. I really could not say if whole swords were spun in the casting. The weight may not have been a problem but the size of flask for the big chap to spin round would limit things. one thing for sure you would be able to cast some nice dense axe heads and spear blades.
