My professor had my class watch you for a lecture assignment. This video was humorous and enlightening! The process is really cool to watch, and the end result is satisfying.
There is almost no you-tube video without negative comments. Some think that is normal, some get irritated by these regular criticizers. I for one do understand what this guy is talking about, but I have no experience whatsoever. I appreciate the effort and find the content very useful.
This basic foundry was a part of my 7th grade industrial arts class. I still have the sweet American Eagle from recycled aluminum cans we poured. Had a 2 man pouring pole with a sizeable "bucket" of liquid alu men ium. Poured all 14 sand boxes in one swipe. English teacher was on the tender end. Hammerschmit The Shop Master Teacher barking orders. Best instructor I ever had. RIP Big Al.
Thank you so much! my entire life, I’ve wanted to learn how to make things. Specifically, everything. But when you’re a girl, they hide certain knowledge. When I wanted to take auto shop or wood shop in high school, guidance, counselor told me “you are on more of an academic track.“ like I’m never going to need to know how to maintain my vehicle or understand when a mechanic is being less than ethical about my needed repairs. I’m so glad I started the search that landed me on your channel.
Thank you! Watched this while on quarantine at home as a pre-study for our Foundry and Casting class. Am excited to do this back in school when the quarantine is over. Sending love from a mechanical engineering student!
My entire working career was with metal,, welding and so on.. You are an inspiration to get back into casting metal.. I've made parts for vintage cars that cannot be bought.. Make a plug,, then cast it.. Liked all of your videos I've seen..
You really say things in a simple way so it can be understood, and I thank you for that. You don't just talk to fill space on film. I hate when someone goes off on talking about some other thing,when I want them to get to the point. You were very helpful and thanks again sir.
I made myself a forge to melt aluminum, and my dad wanted me to cast a trench knife. This video just explains how i can take my 3d object and cast it correctly. Thank you!!

I have learnt more in one video of 14 minutes than in a 2h lecture.. thank you
Thanks very much for a great video describing the process. I went on a 'grinding wheels' course in 1981, the training was a requirement for classroom teachers delivering metalwork classes. I still remember the holes in the roof above the grinding machine in the training centre. They'd decided to leave the holes there to reinforce the consequences of misuse of high RPM wheels. With bench grinders, it's important not to grind soft metals such as aluminium, copper etc as the metal clogs the wheel and causes it to become unbalanced, then potentially break up and part company with the drive spindle. Over the years, I've developed a technique for grinding my wood turning chisels, which involves standing to the side of the grinding wheel - out of the line of fire :) :)
Thanks for this great video. I was able to show it to my wife so she could see what I used to do as a job. You got the whole process shown really nicely.
I was wanting to add something special to my projects and immediately thought of metallurgy, but had no idea what I was doing. Thank you so much for all the information.
Wow! Thanks for the demonstration! I need to make something with aluminium and I think that casting it in sand is what I want to do. Great to see how it was done.
Your welcome! Refreshing to see a woman commenting on a video of mine...rarely happens! Best of luck to you and be safe casting! Thanks for the subscription! 😊 ~ Richard
Thanks for the video! I really appreciate it. I watched many shorts on youtube about sand casting, and though watching the process itself is very satisfying, I was intrigued and wanted to know why some steps are done. Now I know the principle, so thanks a lot!
This is about as simple as you can get. Good stuff! I use to work in a casting plant that made railroad wheels and the frame work for the wheels that mass produce them. I worked in the pattern shop. Very interesting job and I learned a lot. Mass production is the same as here, other than machines doing mostly all the work.
I see that Henry sticker in the back. I bought a Henry for Christmas. X Model, .357/38 w/sidegate and threaded barrel. Its so fun shooting 38s suppressed. Ive been reloading for about 15 years and have a bucket full of spent primers and bad brass. Im getting ready to finally melt it all down for stock for the mill and lathe. Cheers from Idaho.
Great video. That will help out a lot when I finish my foundry. Now I'll try to help you out. When soldering electrical components, or wire, or anything other than pipes, DON'T use plumbing solder and flux. It won't flow well at all. Use a quality rosin cored solder and flux, and stay far away from that lead free crap. You'll be amazed at the difference (and ease) it takes to solder up electrical equipment. Thanks again for your great and informative videos.
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 have a 1969 Honda CB750 'Sandcast', one of the first 3000 CB750s ever built and I always wondered what the 'sandcast' part meant -- excellent video! The people at Honda made the first 7400 or so Honda CB750s ever sold to the public using sandcasting metal forging. Wow, they busted their bauls to make these first few thousand. I'm guessing they weren't sure if the CB750 model would sell enough to justify tooling up an actual production line so this sandcasting technique was a cost-savings in case the CB750 model failed in the marketplace (it didn't fail). . .
Not to take anything away from this very informative video, but Honda's sand casting methods by the late 60s were absolutely nothing like what's being shown here. Check out this Edelbrock foundry video, it'll better put you in the mindset of what was happening at Honda back then. ruclips.net/video/ckbpq6OoiEY/видео.html
Being a "maker" myself, I appreciate the 'crisp' method of teaching. Plus, I picked up some tips and will add to my own knowledge base. I've been casting copper for a while and am ready to refine some of my techniques. This helped, thanks!
Awesome, I'm just discovering metal casting and you are providing great information. You have another subscriber and my gratitude. People like you make RUclips a great learning resource!
Great Video! Really informative for beginners. Only thing I think that could have been shown or demonstrated better is making a smaller version of the pour cup placed over your vent. Loose metal spilling out could cause problems for potential beginners. A small funnel cup over the vent can help control the metal better as you fill your mold. Otherwise, well done!
Thanks, consider subscribing if ya havent already :) Funny you say that, see my newer video on casting the Virgin of Guadalupe....I do just that! ...or something very similar, I didnt need an extended riser:)
so cool! Looking for new techniques for jewelry making, this was very helpful to see where to begin :) Thanks for sharing your time and techniques with us!
Great video dude I subbed to the channel, this is a 6 year old video, you could say I completely understand if this comment flies in under the radar... There's this thing I've been saying for the last 30 years. I saw it on a sign or something once and it just, I guess made an impression on me "We the able, have done for the unwilling, so much, for so long, with so little, that we are now capable of doing anything, with nothing at all" . .if there's one thing I absolutely love to do it's make stuff. Nothing I make is ever marked in any way to indicate who might have made it. I'm not interested in personal credit. I just want to think that when I'm gone, I've left something behind me that in 100 years someone will pick it up and say to his buddy " hey man check this out, how cool is that" they don't have to know my name I just want them to kinda feel what I did when I made it
@@MakinSumthinFromNuthin no doubt it will. I expect to this weekend make a first for me sand casting. A fairly large ballpen hammer from a copper aluminum I made yesterday 90% copper 10% aluminum it seems pretty tough based on my limited testing
I wound up in a shop class in high school and we learned how to do this. Thats been a good while back so this was a nice relearning experience.😊 great video!
First let me start by saying I enjoyed the video. I just had a couple quick questions about the video. 1 was there anything mixed with the sand like water or some type of adhesive? and what type of sand was it. 2 what was the type of metal used? aluminum, lead or some mixture of tin? Thank you in advance for your answers to these questions.
Thanks! :) I have a tutorial on making the casting sand (green sand) ruclips.net/user/edit?ar=3&o=U&video_id=2rAQxw6X6uc The material melted was scrap aluminum
We have a metal casting assignment for class coming up soon, and I wanted to see exactly how it was done so I knew what sort of detail I could have in mind for my assignment, and as in the future I was considering getting into different metal casting for art stuff. An older video being about 7 years old now, but still great!
awesome video! As far as the fan noise you can separate the audio from the video clip and then delete the audio. If its a long scene you can just add some music or a voice over!
Well I was just trying to help. It takes 2 seconds to do it if your on a Mac idk about PC, The better the videos come out the more people watch and for longer, then RUclips promotes your videos better.. If you want any tips feel free to email me! But really good video I’ll be doing some casting soon! Do you have a video on how to make a foundary?
I meant no offense, in my older videos you will find 2 videos on how I made my foundry(s). One is for a brass foundry, the other about the one you just saw in the video
I wanted to say that I have seen other tutorials, you made it look far easier then it probably is. I'm dyslexic oh, so a good tutorial such as yours makes the difference
@@MakinSumthinFromNuthin Yeah fair enough. I'd recommend the following quick vid which shows how gas vents arent necessary, possibly even being detrimental: ruclips.net/video/024yOMb6OHI/видео.html
Thanks sir this thought me basics, I'm going to work as Sand Casting pattern designer soon, and will be learning new stuff there so this video made me understand how sand casting really works!😁❤️
I really appreciate this video, thank you. I've got an old motor bike, and some of the missing original parts are simply unobtainable, you've given me the confidence to attempt making them myself.
Hello, thank you for sharing. This is my 1st video I watch about casting, though I'm looking for making a mold from a wood carving into a non metal cast. I really enjoy your video and thank you for sharing your many years experience doing this. I will continue my seach so I can start making what you started many years ago. Blessings to you.
Thanks, I have been collecting aluminum cans to melt. I need to make two clamshell halves of a Crossman 760 BB gun receiver modified to a be conversion to PCP or HPA thus getting rid of the old pump system. I need one of those third hand things too for fishing lure making.
Thanks, dude. i think this will help a lot. I've had a project that I've been doing for my friend and eventually thought that sand casting would be the best solution to be able to get it done. This video helps a lot. I do have a pretty complex design for it though so hopefully that wont make it harder for me. Thanks again
I’m just now learning about metal casting, I’m using Bismuth, and I’m very excited for the possibilities of solutions to some problems I had that now seem to have an answer, that’s for the tutorial,
Thanks for this video. I am curious tho, what holds the sand in place? Is it just packed that hard, or is it moistened with something ? I am intrested in trying this method. Thanks again, cool project !
I am a novice engineer and am looking to manufacture parts for a prototype machine, I love traditional ways of making things by hand not to mention this is technically recycling metal and is proving to be a viable option until I get into 3d printers, awesome video you inspired me!
My professor had my class watch you for a lecture assignment. This video was humorous and enlightening! The process is really cool to watch, and the end result is satisfying.
Thats Awesome! Say hello to the class for me!
There is almost no you-tube video without negative comments. Some think that is normal, some get irritated by these regular criticizers. I for one do understand what this guy is talking about, but I have no experience whatsoever. I appreciate the effort and find the content very useful.
You helped a 1st year high schooler thanks
Great!! They teach casting in school nowadays????
This probably taught me more about practical metallurgy than my senior elective metallurgy class in college. Thanks, from a materials scientist.
Wow, thanks for the kind words and thanks for watching 😊
@@MakinSumthinFromNuthin the holes was drill at what inch diameter?
@@nseudofa4651 the hole was 7mm so around 0.28 inches
Senior elective in College? I thought I was taking and easy class with “Canoeing”. 🤣😊
love to hear shit like this. classrooms sometimes can be redundant
This basic foundry was a part of my 7th grade industrial arts class. I still have the sweet American Eagle from recycled aluminum cans we poured. Had a 2 man pouring pole with a sizeable "bucket" of liquid alu men ium. Poured all 14 sand boxes in one swipe. English teacher was on the tender end.

Great lesson. Always go to someone who knows what they're doing. That's why I came here.
Thanks Thomas!
3rd hand is exactly what I need, had actually planned to make my own instead of buying one for $10 from ebay. Thanks for posting.

My thoughts exactly, i've been wondering what the powder people have been using when making the mold. So now i know what it is and why its used.
Thanks for the video! I really appreciate it. I watched many shorts on youtube about sand casting, and though watching the process itself is very satisfying, I was intrigued and wanted to know why some steps are done. Now I know the principle, so thanks a lot!
Really helpful. I’m doing engineering and the last time we did sand casting was like 7 months ago. Really helped refresh my memory. Thank you 🤩

Great Video! Really informative for beginners.
Only thing I think that could have been shown or demonstrated better is making a smaller version of the pour cup placed over your vent. Loose metal spilling out could cause problems for potential beginners. A small funnel cup over the vent can help control the metal better as you fill your mold.

It is now, not sure about then....
Because hes poor. A hole

There's no need for a vent for the gasses to escape. The gas escapes through the sand.
i usually put one out of habit
@@MakinSumthinFromNuthin Yeah fair enough. I'd recommend the following quick vid which shows how gas vents arent necessary, possibly even being detrimental: ruclips.net/video/024yOMb6OHI/видео.html

awesome!
Look what molten metal does to wood! Imagine what would happen if it splashed on bare skin or nylon shoes and socks. Just saying, use common sense.
Yes, hot stuff, approx 1300+ degrees
Tee shirt, tennis shoes and shorts is not safe attire for metal casting. No safety face shield either.
There is a hospital in trip in their future with these safety practices
Just cant be clumsy ;)
Clumsy shouldn't be doing this in the first place. Still safety gear is needed. Even graceful people have unforeseen accidents.
I really appreciate this video, thank you. I've got an old motor bike, and some of the missing original parts are simply unobtainable, you've given me the confidence to attempt making them myself.
Thats great, best of luck on making them!
I also do machine work (see my recent videos) if parts are needed to be made from scratch
Is it weird that I am 10 and do this stuff and do mechanical engineering

Thanks for this video. I am curious tho, what holds the sand in place? Is it just packed that hard, or is it moistened with something ? I am intrested in trying this method. Thanks again, cool project !
