Is there another way to create bending/winding holes within metal without casting it with some lost wax method?

Only other way I can think of is drilling holes from the outside to meet up, then staking in a small ball bearing to seal the outside(as done for crankshaft oil passages), but I'm not sure if that'll get you what you need.

Thanks friend I'll google around for some more info on sealing the holes. That seems like the best option for what I need to do.

you weld up the end of the hole on the outside
