I need to make a bunch of molds in sandcast bronze and would like to
know the kind of sand
to get for finest detail/smoothest finish . They won't be complex , or
even 2 part sand molds, probably just bronze poured onto a flat cope
that has an depression in it and a dam built around the depression .
thanks

I would consider plaster molds for best detail

I've only ever used plaster molds (a long time ago, molding bullets for
miniature cannon out of solder. It's a wonder I'm still alive).

Do you need to implement control loops in software?
"Applied Control Theory for Embedded Systems" gives you just what it says.
