Now that the little orphan girl has been turned from clay into wax, she is ready to be dipped into the slurry. The slurry makes a hard shell around the wax. The red markings on the surface help the foundry worker (this is not Ken's normal job, but I had to commandeer him for the photo) know how many times the wax has been dipped. It will be coated seven times before it's finished.
