The matchplate was upside down, but he made it work. If this was used as educational material in a classroom as some of the comments indicate, I hope it inspired some of the kids to dig deeper on their own and learn more about the methods and proper tools a more experienced molder would use. It would have worked on me. I wish I'd had the opportunity to learn how much I love sand molding before I turned 40. 👍

Yes, this was used in a high school classroom. Students all have an opportunity to make their own project. Noted on the matchplate.

If you packed the sand tight enough in the drag you wouldn't need the molding board to keep the sand from falling out when you flipped the drag. I cant remember the last time any of my sand fell out of the drag.

Eleventeen Machine I completely agree...However, I do this activity with high school kids.

@@InsaneOil oh ok then. It might be a good idea to mention it in the video that it's not standard practice to lightly pack it.

I have never seen a worse job of making and casting a sand mould! So many mistakes made here that this video should be ignored - it is a very bad example of the art and science of foundry! The thought that it is being used in schools is appalling. Please either tell people that this is NOT how to do it or take the video down. Martin

@@olfoundryman8418 Thank you for the e-mail. You should have an in-depth reply in your box. This video is designed for freshman level high school students taking an Introductory Metalworking class. It is used as an educational tool. It is not designed as a resource to acquire an understanding for the art and science of foundry, those concepts can only be acquired through post-secondary training, many years of practice, and continual learning over a lifetime. The goal of this video tutorial is to help high school kids develop a basic understanding, an awareness and possibly an interest in the skilled trade of foundry.
