This book serves as a comprehensive guide to the fundamentals of pattern making, focusing on the production of ordinary metal castings such as those made of iron or brass. The author provides a detailed overview of the process, which involves creating a form that is nearly identical to that required for the casting, using materials such as wood, metal, rubber, or plaster; from this form, a mold is made in sand or another refractory substance into which molten metal is poured and takes on the desired shape. The book delves into the nuances of pattern making, including the creation of cores and core boxes, the use of core prints, common materials employed in the process, and the application of varnishes and protective coatings. The book advocates for the use of standard systems for core prints, hubs, and other pattern elements, emphasizing the importance of durability and ease of use. Additionally, the author stresses the significance of proper fastening techniques using nails, screws, glue, and adhesives, highlighting the unique demands of this specialized field.
