Diecaster D. here with some upgrades I've made to my foundry in anticipation for the long awaited turntable project. Upgrades include a new "mega" flask for the massive pattern, more molding sand, pouring shank 2-player mode upgrade, burner oil outlet reducer, oil filter funnel, and good air regulators for the burner as well as for pressurizing the oil tank. Also some much needed safety equipment (face shield).
