Steve Chastain, a Mechanical and Materials Engineer, shows the beginner how to make a sand mold and then how to hone your skill to produce high quality castings. Written in non-technical terms, the sand casting manuals begine by melting cans over a charcoal fire and end by casting a cylinder head. All for little cost in your own back yard!

A trip through a foundry from pattern to product. This series follows a cast iron or steel product through the metal casting process in a traditional foundry. Iron melts at 2750°F and steel at 2500°F. Casting is the process of creating metal objects by pouring liquid metal into molds, where it cools and hardens into the mold's shape.

Green Sand. Green sand refers to the sand molds formed from wet sand and is sometimes referred to as clay. The sand mold is in an uncured state as the metal is being poured. Sand casting using green sand is quick and inexpensive since the sand can be reused. The downside is that the sand is a soft mold and can collapse or shift during …

Even with today's technologies (timers, flowmeters, valving), we cannot get away from this basic goal: to make the first sand usable, and exactly the same as the sand right that follows it. It is a simple process to catch the first 1-2 seconds of sand that exits the mixer and then put it in the molds as soon as the pattern is covered.

We will use both 'mold' and 'mould' in this article. Patterns. The shape of castings is determined by the mold cavity, but something needs to shape the mold first, and that is where the pattern comes in. Patterns are a model for the object to be cast. A pattern is used to produce the cavity in the molding sand for pouring the molten-metal.
