We will follow the steps of molding the form shown in , assuming the pattern to be in two parts divided at theparting-line. The first completed step is shown in Fig. 112. The mold-board was laid on the cross-sticks and the dragplaced upon it bottom up. The lower portion of the patternwas then laid on the mold-board. The molding-sand is nowsifted into the drag and rammed around the pattern, care beingtaken to have plenty of sand, to ram uniformly, and to avoid €hap. m] MAKING A MOLD. 115 layers.

The whole is carefully turnedover and the mold-board is laid aside.
