    Lost foam casting for mortising fence-im000928.jpgI promised this mortising fence earlier and here is the rough casting in our kitchen sink of course.

    The blue item is the Styrofoam pattern for the lost foam process.

    Can't wait to see the cast fence Bob. Would love to see your foam cutter, is it homemade by any chance?

    I finally got my mortising fence casting added after many photo problems. They are up now though. The foam cutter you asked about is indeed homemade and will appear soon!

    Thanks
    Bob
