    Different type of casting.

    Sorry the only link I can find is a Facebook link. Note the bare feet and sandals. It never ceases to amaze me what some people can do mostly by hand.

    I found this short film on how a medium size propeller is cast fascinating. A real down in the dirt operation producing such products without modern tools. I don't count the hand grinder. And the crazy thing is those props come out balanced.

    One of our Squid Buddies is going to come along and inform you that is a "SCREW" not a propeller. Propellers go on airplanes. Ships screw the water.

    it's pretty much a time capsule back into the mid to late 1800's during the industrial revolution. now ease back in your chair and compare life then and now.
