Seems like you picked up casting easily again! Looking forward to the rest of the build. :thumbup: That's an interesting sprue cutter! I've been tapering my sprues lately just by choosing a dowel of the bottom diameter desired and rapping it from all sides at the top to form a taper before removing it. Works well and makes a nice smooth sprue surface with no cleanout needed. |

John, what's the centre height over the cross slide on your Boxford? The Emco Compact 8 is 60mm I'm curious to know how different the projects are! VT, I picked up the casting with quite a lot of glitches, the thing that I hadn't quite remembered was how much of a buzz casting is, such a satisfying thing to do!! Regards, Matthew |
