Jerry Platkin

Metalwork

Jerry Platkin has been doing gold and now silver castings for almost 50 years. Learning my trade as a crown and bridge technician in a dental lab. After 11years of experience I opened my own dental lab specializing in gold castings. 35 years later I retired, always thinking that my casting equipment would make for a nice hobby in my next life. No more bicuspids and molars! Wondering what to create as I sit at my waxing bench has been fun, but the best part is seeing people smile when they see my work.
