I did this video, so my friend Tim could see what I do in my spare time. The only way I could let him see it, easily, was to put it here. Enjoy
And if anyone has any questions on this process please feel free to ask.

In only 50 seconds, the CIR Sand Casting System allows for the replication of a residual limb. This model can then be modified and used to create a final transtibial (below-the-knee) prosthetic socket. The technique eliminates the need for plaster bandages and Plaster-of-Paris, and requires only:
1.A large container
2.Silica sand
3.An air compressor capable of maintaining a vacuum
4.A metal pipe for connecting to vacuum pump
5.Thin plastic bags
6.Rubber bands

This will be a multi part video on foundry pattern making. A wooden pattern is used to make an impression in the sand mold. A silica sand core is inserted to produce the cylinder bore in the casting. A wood pattern of the cylinder is turned on the Clausing lathe.

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.
