PART THREE – Sand Casting Process with Philip White and Jenny Dunseath in the foundry at Camberwell college of Art London. Video by Chris Follows part of the Process Arts Project – http://itrdu1.arts.ac.uk/wpmu/process – University of the arts London

Text Information supplied by Jenny Dunseath:

11. Take Cope off and set it aside. You should be able to see an imprint of your Pattern. Depending on its location use your hole-cutter and cut a Sprue hole by placing your hand on the back of the Cope and push hole cutter through the other side, twisting slightly.
12. Widen the Sprue hole on the top of the Cope, to enable the metal to flow. Ensure all edges are smoothed and there is no loose sand.
13. Tap on the Pattern to loosen, use a screw to take Pattern out.

14. With a set of Bellows blow out all loose sand, make sure everything is smooth.
15. Place your flask back together and pour your metal!
16. After pouring wait for the material to solidify. The amount of time this takes will depend on the size and density of the piece of metal you are creating. Large, dense pieces of metal will take more time to solidify than smaller pieces.
