Casting for the pulley light

I have taken silicone moulds of the wooden laser cut components, and also a clam cleat typically found on a boat, and cast them in pewter.
I’m still working on getting them smooth and shiny with wet and dry sandpaper, but their starting to look really good. I’m still unsure of the size of the weight, it may no be heavy enough to keep the tension throughout the pulley system. Only putting it all together will give me an idea.
