things with your hands, there's no doubt that you will
enjoy metal casting.The only limiting factor is your skill,
Shed Heater imagination and determination. The basics of foundry
work is simply using a pattern to create a cavity in

into the mould. The more you can learn about it, the
better your skills become.

The image below shows a common moulding
medium called green sand, the name has nothing to do
Foundry with the colour. When a pattern is rammed with well
Patterns prepared sand in a mould box, the sand bonds together
and retains the shape of the pattern, it is not like normal
Spin Casting beach or river sand, and when the pattern is removed,
an exact shaped cavity remains which is where the
molten metal is poured. Other types of silicate sand can

be used for making moulds also, but green sand is good
to start with.

Aluminium Ingots.
To melt the ingots into molten metal thay are placed into
a crucible that can withstand extremely high
furnace temperatures, aluminium melts at around 700C,
bronze melts at around 1200C. Crucibles come in all
shapes and sizes. The best quality crucibles are made
from silicon carbide, properly cared for, they will last for
several years, they will outlast clay graphite crucibles.
Some people make cheap melting pots from a short
length of heavy walled pipe with a base plate welded on,
but they don't last as long.

Hi Col.
Thank you for checking in on me. Also thanks for
the ezine.
Good stuff. I actually purchased several books on
home foundries
and I am pleased to write that I literally have my
furnace behind me,
here in my room with a 100 watt light inside of it to
slow cure it.
You see, I just cast the refractory this weekend. I
am very happy
with the way it has turned out.
Your design is the best of all of the designs I
have found put
together. Plus I added a few of my own ideas
along the way.
I will send you a picture of it when it is done.
Thanks again. Keith Taylor.
