I’ve viewed all your foundry videos. I took shop classes in foundry from my dad in the 70’s. I too have taught high school shop. After seeing other channels about backyard foundry, (that frightened me), I glad you have taken time to show how. I think a good addition would be to show proper safety attire and explain dangers, (i.e. exploding concrete).
