 Topic: Looking for a foundry
Posted: 19 Mar 2017 at 11:26am |

Looking for information on where I can find a foundry that will do a small number of castings. Hoping you guys can help. I don't need hundreds of castings only 10 - 20 pieces. Thanks

I'll check with a buddy and see it he would be interested in doing them, and get you in touch with him.

The Tomahawk Foundry in Rice Lake WI would be an option. That is who I am working with for the things I am looking to get done for my 20-35's. One off things, or small batches is kinda there specialty.

I deal with an Amish family in Pa. They are very leery of outsiders and I only got to know they after being introduced to them. They have always done good work for me, anything from a single piece to about 30 pieces. They work from originals or a pattern. working from originals is not bad for small pieces, but the shrinkage on large things can be a problem. They don't any machining of holes or surfaces.

If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
Real pullers don't have speed limits.
If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY

There's a place over in Waupaca, I think that's only an hour from you Chris. It's called Shannak Foundry (not sure if that's spelled right)
