hopefully tomorrow I will be finished with this thread and can start a new one on how I messed up the bore in the flat belt pulley while boring it out to 1.5 inchs.
Sorry no photos but I did get the pattern rammed up today, if help had of shown up this evening I would of poured it today. But the flask halves are too big to handle by myself and I don't have any thing to pick it up with that will roll around the yard.
So first thing in the morning when help shows up I get to see if the pattern pieces will pull out of the sand, most of the runner came out when I removed the molding board, i was able to stick them back in place and there was no damage to the mold.
I'm hoping that this thing will pull like its suppose to and that I get a complete pour the first time.
