A gym cast iron disc would also make a good base for this rig... Anyhow, gread video to refresh my memory how to begin with the cope and the drag (not queen) 😂

u got a facbook or phone number i got a airride set up that was done by someone else. How long do these tanks last before they are dangerous to be holding the 200 psi required to inflate my suspensionset up that was done by someone else.

The ‘pour’ cup- genuis!!

Can I do the same thing with Clay?

You just answered my question I've been having lately. If I look on your channel will I find out if you have a video with steel ingots.

In your other video of the whole process, it looked like you used the green sand only where it contacts the item, then used the unfiltered sand on top of that to compress it all. Or are you only using green sand and no unfiltered sand? Thank you.

Absolutely wonderful! Very clear and practical explanation/demonstration. Thank You so much!

Hi from the 🇬🇧. Just started watching your channel and it's just like being back in my old school metal work class. Really loving it more than words can say.

I’d like a levitating vice…

Thank you for a useful video. What sort of sand do you use and do you add anything to help it bind together.

Why you are not using light heating method instead of jacobs?

I ordered some 5/16" stainless tubing from amazon as well as a x36 tap and die. I think i can make this tool fairly cheap. I was just wondering how long the body of this tool ended up being ?

All my chucks are straight thru so you can punch them out from the jaw side

Im subscribed...im the king of making something from nothin...or free. I love it. Materials are insane expensive, and like guns it's everywhere. Just waiting to make room for the next big purchase. I love Craig's list...who cares if the chairs are mismatched I want the legs and the table top and those two leaves you move from closet to closet. Like a kid in a candy store

I really appreciate this video and the time and dedication you took and making it

OH MY! Why haven't I seen this video before?

Saved to favorites!

Wow thanks for this video it has helped me get a better clue on sand casting

thank you for that great information, just what I needed to make my own green sand, all the best to you, Allan

This video was very helpful I am very glad I came across your account. You will receive a follow! But I want to start sand casting. Can you tell me more about your furnace and how it works ?

Dont appreciate the comment anout bras being removed ... do u want your lil daughters, grandkids, etc to do that?

Late, and maybe a crazy idea... Can you heat the chuck, maybe almost to 200 F and dunk the arbor into ice water?

Possibly a stupid question but, Is the sand reusable afterward? I mean in the sense of do you need to mix anything with it post its use like more clay etc or just good to go again, Also are you just using that fine sand mix with clay or just straught normal wet sand? Thanks

Make a belt buckle or something . Fs ! A square slab with two wires ? Could have made that from any bit of steel laying about

most vid's are too much chat and miss the point but your vid is great, to the point quick and understandable. big thanks

What kind of sand is that?? Play sand??

So if I have a part that was already anodized and just wanted to redye it do I still have to go through the whole process? Thanks

Just brilliant

Awesome video details

Thank you for this im going to watch everything you have on this subject. Do you have the poor mans furnace?

How do you heat it?

Great video, you made it look quite easy, is that a bought furnace of did you make that ? 🙂👍

Just getting into casting, this video was very informative and helped me understand it better!

what sand used here isnt sand like gonna to fall do you like add water or something?

I those youd stick the copper wire into the sand and cast them in. Awesome project! Thanks

Thank you for a superb video; I have been trying to make diving belt weights but so far have failed miserably; this instruction of the fine flour of play sand and cat litter will definitely work for me, so simple, effective and cheap too 👍

My biggest issue is air pockets... in the copper casting i made, They appear right under the ventilation holes. still trying to search around on the internet for deeper detail...

You forgot to include a place (port) on the case head that you can measure the bullet / case combo with a caliper blade. Also you need to expand the case necks (or ream) to .002" over the bullet diameter. The push rod you furnish will also not allow you to measure on the centerline of the case bullet combo. I doubt that 5/16" tap was able to work on the 223 case heads as the coarse threads will detach the base at the extractor grooves on the case. Ask me how I know. Grin. But nice machine work.

That's a nice piece of "nothing"!

Thanks for posting. I'm trying to do some backyard casting, and your video gave me some ideas for improving my setup.

🤯🤯🤯

Hello, what kind of sand you use in sand casting?

Thank you, Sir, for the insights. The video helped me understand sand casting better.

Never seen that solution before it worked. I thought you would have to use a hydraulic press to press it out from the inside of the chuck.

I had a friend who lost 3 fingers when his angle grinder blade exploded. Absolutely a true story. Wear leather gloves, and a face shield, when using that cutting tool. That thing is spinning much faster than you think. You have been advised.

Nice work. Exactly what I was planning to do so very useful video.

The Americans dont realise that the original 'Greensand' comes from Southeast England. It's of Cretaceous age, a natural sand with a fine clay content and furthermore is actually green when freshly dug due to the presence of Glauconite. They think that they invented it and named it 😂😂

Battery acid is dangerous to work around in open air. The fumes can ignite and blow up the work area. Therefore, do not use a gas stove or work in area of one. Need to be ready with a solution to neutralize any spills. Wear a face shield as well to protect the face and eyes in the event of an explosion or spill.

From my Foundry experience, this is really a cheap, simple, and fast way of making Green sand. One thing that we do to reduce cost is use fine sand (your process) around the pattern and use coarse sand above it. This would help in two ways. Your fine sand requirement will be very small and coarse sand enables the gas pass through easily. After seeing this video, I have a curious question on a different subject. In my back yard, there is a 800 sq ft of easement. Weed paper and mulch didn't help me to remove weeds. Do you know this Green sand takes care of the weed as it contains clay?

Can I pay you to make me a 906 Pacer Center wheel cover
