Seem to remember a thread that mentioned there are folks (Amish?)
willing to cast one off parts if the pattern was provided. Anyone
recall or know of someone?

Whoops, that is, a foundry that can Cast Iron....


Awhile ago, someone posted to this NG:

"$2 per pound at Pomona Foundry in Southern California.
Grey or malleable.
$30-50 minimum depending phases of the moon.
Top notch work. Absolutely artists at what they do."

I have no idea if this is true or not. I did follow up once on the Amish thing
and got a letter in the mail back from a guy who said he no longer did one-off
castings. - GWE
