This book first appeared in 1954 and has found a steady market ever since.
Revisions have taken place when necessary, but the basic process of casting
hot metal in moulds changes very little and revisions have therefore largely
related to supply of foundry materials. That the book maintains its steady
popularity is a recommendation that it really does provide the information
sought by the amateur foundryman.
Subjects include crucibles and melting methods, moulding sands and
mixtures, making moulding boxes, patterns and cores, preparing a mould,
melting ferrous and non-ferrous metals, tools, a home-built drop-bottom
cupola furnace and other allied matters, all in detail and clearly and simply
explained. The author, a well-known contributor to Model Engineer, is also a
skilled artist, as his drawings illustrating the text demonstrate.
