In Southern California: Independent Foundry Supply. This place is the
cookie jar for hobby foundry guys. They sell to the industry but
happily sell to walk-ins for the same prices! Ask for Cameron, the
owner's son - he runs the place. They have crucibles from teacup to
jacuzzi sizes, many kinds of sand, clays, sodium silicate, parting
sands... you name it, they have it and it's top quality and in-stock. I
live 90 miles south and it was WELL worth the drive.
Hello all, this is Dave Drescher. I got some Wire for my foam cutter
and would be willing to sell short amounts to anyone interested. I
haven't tried it yet, but it is susposed to make a great difference.
Here is the description: Inconel X750 .012"
Nickel/Chromium/Molybdenum alloy which has an exceptional combination
of oxidation resistance, fabricability and high temperature strength.
Excellent ability to resist stress corrosion cracking in petrochemical
applications. Just e-mail me from here or from my web site.
