does anyone have experience w/purchasing casting (from their own
patterns) for some project they were building? Better yet can they
recommend someone in northeast Pennsylvania that does onezies? I'd
like to build a replica of an early Hardinge vertical mill. Nothing
over 40 lbs. I don't think. Thanks.

A direct offlist e-mail would be even more appreciated.

Several years ago, someone on RCM recommended an Amish run foundry (think
no phone, and no internet), that I think Pa. I think the name was Cattail
Foundry.

google found this article with a name and an address

Is Gordonville, Pa. close to you?

Search RCM archives, I think that self addressed stamped envelope is the
contact method.


A search of www.owwm.com might also prove fruitful. ISTR that some folks
there had replacement casting made from broken parts by that same Amish
foundry and were happy with the results.
