Sand casting is a process that uses a mold made from either metal, wood, or wax to create a negative impression in a special sand that will be the mold for the molten metal This mold is then filled with a molten metal that is left to cool and solidify Once the metal has solidified the mold can be hit with a hammer, pipe, or any hard object to ....
