CREATING A HOME FOUNDRY

摘要

It was just after I had prepared this article, that the excellent work by Alan Furness was published in MEW issues 110 and 111 With his extensive career in the aluminium industry, Alan was able to bring his considerable experience and depth of understanding of both the practical and technical aspects. For readers wishing a greater degree of detail on the metallurgical and chemical aspects, I would recommend reading these earlier articles. My own background includes teaching at secondary school over quite a number of years. Given that we produced many good castings with a zero accident record, I would hope to instill in the reader something of my enthusiasm for this activity, and encourage others to have a go.
