This book is regarded as the perfect introduction to casting common
hot metals in moulds, providing all the information needed by
amateur foundrymen. Since 1954, when Foundrywork for the Amateur
was first published, the advance of technology and engineering has
been enormous and there have been many revisions along the way.
However, conditions in the 21st century are so far removed from the
state of affairs in the 1950s that, although the basic principle of
the foundry remains the same, the language and the presentation of
the book was due to be uplifted. This present edition therefore
represents a complete rewrite to conform to the era and, in
particular, to the availability of material which at one time was
taken for granted. Not only has the text been updated, but the
illustrations have been completely redrawn and, on the basis of the
advances made in the amateur foundry since the early days, the
photographs have also been renewed and increased in number. This
new edition also reflects the author's growing interest in the
model steam locomotive.
