Metal Casting Zone

i took some pics todays to show the special sprue tool i made. it has knocked 20 minutes off my molding time.







my special tool.

That's great XL, sure beats using a machine gun.

Great idea for the gating XL looking good

I can hear the conversation with your Mrs, Xl. "Honey, Where did that section of the fence go? It was there yesterday..." Creative thinking, it ain't dead after all.

thanks guys i thought you might like some pics!

Thanks Rob hi rob to post more than one pic... i use photobucket so this is how i do it using photobucket. i select the pic and it comes up and beside it it has some codes.. there is an ing or forum code. i click on it and it copies it. i open this window here and paste it!! then hit "ENTER" a couple of times to create a gap between the pics. you can enter text in this gap if you wish. when you paste your code hit ENTER and then you jump down a line or how ever many you like.

Hi XL sounds like a great project hope to see photos of the finished track layout, thats alot of casting
