To the trained eye, the two are really the same; the path is represented in the end result, no hiding it. And certainly I have some prejudices there, generally favoring the one-off hand-made path. But the artist's eye is evident in castings too. And in the case of Nagasawa castings, it surpasses most anything I've seen hand made one at a time."
