CASTING.


            CASTING is a method by which molten metal is poured into a mould
                    in order to achieve the desired shape.  In the "Lost
                    Wax" method, an accurate wax model is made.  The wax
                    model is invested (put in a chrystobalite plaster),
                    after the investment has set, the wax is burned out in
                    a Kiln.  This leaves a negative cavity into which the
                    molten metal may be poured.
