I starting to think that the shop monster is lacking in faith of me finishing this project from the looks that I get from him at times.
Thanks to my buddy giving me some paint hes had since we both were laid off, that took all day to dry, I didn't get much done plus its little piece work. all the pieces have to be pinned down so that they will stay in place when the sand hits the flask. But the pins have to be loose so that the board can be removed when the flask is flipped. Gates from the runner will be put in when the cope is rammed up so that the runner has to fill first. I still have to make core prints and a core pattern.
The gates will be placed at each one of the gussets which will be lined up in both halves of the pattern so that there will not be any large drops or waterfall effect from the molten metal which can wash out the sand.
