    Lost foam process

    Hey guys - I posted up a video of me going through the lost foam aluminum casting process for a motor mount for my latest CNC machine build - I go through the whole process from CNC cutting the foam to the pouring to the finishing of the part with a fly cutter... in case anyone's interested

    That's weird - but I get that error too in IE (I normally use Firefox) so I'll have to figure that one out!

    Here's a link to the video on Youtube
