Spent my weekend trying to cast a new door hinge, what a disaster

Figured it would be a simple job with my shop skills. The mold wasn't set right, and the metal poured out everywhere. Now I have a lumpy mess instead of a hinge. My whole garage smells like burnt sand and metal. I should have just bought one from the store.

Honestly it's just one door hinge.

Technically it's usually two hinges on a door, lol. One hinge wouldn't hold it up right.

Remember that time my door fell off? @nathannelson would've called it a hinge disaster.
