In greensand moulds tliere is steam to contend with, which is notfound in tlioroughly dried moulds. A plain dry sand mouldhaving 8 of sand between the pattern and flask would becast with less danger of its scabbing, if not vented, than ifthere was only 2 of sand. A good body of sand in a flaskallows the surface gases (and steam, if any) to have a chanceto confine themselves in the interior body of the sand ; andwhen there are no lioles or openings in the flask, it may re-main there, for tliere is room enough to hold the gases, andtheir pressure will be insufficient to force them through theface of the mo
