This is a picture of my first casting, just out of the sand.


This is a picture of my first casting, just out of the sand.

File:Sandcast006.jpg Here is the pattern for my next casting project.

This is the pattern in the cope, ready to be extracted.

The pattern has been removed, and cavities made for the sprue and riser. ( Where the metal is poured in.)
The white powder is talc (Baby powder ) used as a mould release.
