Glad you like the videos! If you are going to cast the bed and bases in greensand molds, you will need to make the patterns as specified in the book ( with draft ). Draft is required such that you can remove the patterns from the mold before you pour. If you have a square pattern it will make it extremely hard to remove the pattern from the sand mold. If however you were to do everything with lost foam casting, you could get away with keeping everything square.

Cheers,
Morgan

I was watching all your your videos about the Gingery Lathe, excellent work on that. I am planning to make one ass soon I can, my first question about yours modification is, Did you make the bed and the base square or did you use the original angle on the sides (like in the book)?

Thanks
