That's pretty good Chrissi. The excess material provides a opportunity for people to express
their creativity :)

Here is a picture of a box of water pump castings. I'll try to get
at least one machined before I leave.

Save one for us, we need it! will pay you at the show.

OK

BTW I talked to the foundry yesterday about a process called ball burnishing.
It is a low cost finish applied to the outside of a sand casting that markedly
improves the surface finish and the appearance. Like $15 or $20 bucks
per casting. Not expensive as polishing but polishing can be applied
after the ball burnishing.
