×Sand Casting Molding Tools, Tapered Sprue Former and Surge Trap
These are a couple tools to help molding a sand casting mold. The use of a tapered sprue former and surge trap can be seen on a Paul's Garage video on youtube, or other, better videos by other, smarter people.
This is to be used in conjunction with 1/4" diameter copper tube to form the runners when printed 100%. Print at 150% to use 3/8" copper pipe, 125% for 5/16" pipe, etc...
I split the pattern in the slicer, and printed them flat. Both pieces can be split and printed all at once on my Prusa i3 MK2s
