Thanks to Ceri Jonathan Manufacturing Director at B&C Foundry Ltd, Unit 23b&23c, Greenway, Bedwas, Caerphilly CF83 8DW for producing the castings for Lion. Model Engineers looking for a reliable foundry should contact Ceri at: ceri@bcfoundry.co.uk or by telephone on 029 2088 6871 Harrye visiting the Foundry and being shown round. Some patterns for castings for the Severn Valley Railway are viewed with the sand moulds for castings. One of the bigger furnaces is fired up for us to see. Meanwhile, Aluminium road studs are being cast. Larger items are cast to produce Aluminium tools for plastic moulding trays. |
