    Canadian Backyard Casting Suppliers?

    Does anyone have listings of casting suppliers in Canada? I'm looking at maybe casting a couple pc's of alum but don't have anything to do it w/ as of yet. I'm looking for suppliers for refractory and crucibles and sand etc.. I've got lots of old trany's and engines which I plan to bash up into smaller pc's and re-cast into something usable.

    Thanks!

    Thanks Weldtutor... I took a look, unfortunatly it looks like that site is more for pottery and smaller stuff, they only sell fire bricks not a pourable [like cement] refractory.. Look's like I'll have to keep looking..

    Jerry This link might help for your supplies.
    http://www.synergetic.on.ca/
    It is an associate of PSH, who do in fact supply
    castable refractories, but you need to send them an email to request info for items not shown in their catalogue & web listings.

    I'm a long ways away Luke, I'm located in Sask. so pretty much far away from anyone who sells this stuff.. [or so it would appear] I've got a couple email out to people, we'll see how it goes. I might just put this whole casting thing on hold until I am better set up to do it.
