here's a good youtube channel for engine part casting

I've been subscribed to this fellow for a long time... he casts almost all of his parts and builds working engines from the parts. The techniques he uses should help any beginning metal casting enthusiast

imma look into this, looks very interesting. Thanks for posting

Lotta fellers asked what all was needed and involved in this process... Myfordboy has an entire vidya series on the backyard foundry, how to make the sand, the cope/drag, the furnace, and the mold patterns. For alla his work, we can forgive him for bein a Brit (grin). And by the way, he's just about as far opposite of Murray Mayhem (Darrin) as you can get... He don't talk at ALL.
