Glad to see that the 2nd pour went better than the first. At least in casting you can reuse any bad parts unlike in machining operations. It will be interesting to follow along with the rest of the build as you progress. Thanks for showing us this.  :ddb: :ddb:

Cheers  :beer:

Sorry...I couldn't help myself.
Gadget:
Thanks guys. This weekend I will be pouring another bed casting for a friend, then on to the mounting bases.
Gadget:
I had a busy day today. I cast mounting bases for the Gingery mill for me and a friend. I had to shake out the first pair to get enough sand to cast the second. I didn't quite have enough for two large flasks.
Anyway, all four castings turned out quite well. The bed surface has been hand scraped true flat so the next step is to surface the mounting bases and mount them to the bed.
