How We Operate

 

How We Operate – Black Arts Casting

At Black Arts Casting, we use a grouping or aggregation system to process client work efficiently and intelligently. Each piece is grouped by metal type, then by casting profile—so each casting tree is optimised for success. This system, combined with our specific turnaround times, gives us the opportunity to build the most effective casting setups for every model.

This is exactly how we operate at Black Arts Casting—and it’s why we don’t offer artificially short lead times. Rushing would degrade quality and damage both our standards and your profit margins.

This approach sets us apart from ‘fast’ casters and small-scale operations, which often lack the volume to make casting both efficient and high-quality. It also separates us from larger industrial casters, where attention to detail may be lost on the production line. At Black Arts, we’re a family-run business. We care deeply about the outcome. In casting, there is no room for mistakes.

We follow the logic of the Iron Triangle: Good, Fast, Cheap—pick two.


We choose Good and Cheap. That means slower turnarounds, but better value. Our competitors may choose Fast and Cheap (sacrificing quality) or Fast and Good (at a premium price). We don’t compromise. We design every casting to be finishable by a skilled professional using basic tools.

If you’re a maker or designer who values quality and consistency, we believe this is the most sustainable way to work.

We hope clients choose us not just for our results, but because of how we operate at Black Arts Casting: good castings, fair pricing, and a method built around long-term trust and success.

Our ethos is simple: our clients’ success is our success.
