Aluminum Row Cleaning Planter Parts
 ✖  |
Gus Pachta, Cuba, Kan.: “I cast my own aluminum row cleaning planter parts by setting up my own mini foundry using methods I learned by following YouTube videos. I’ve also cast gearboxes using the same methods. The parts are as good as buying new, although you have to smooth out some of the rough edges. The original parts wear out fast, though, so I saved a lot of money and learned a new skill. The videos I followed explain everything in detail, including how to set up the propane heat source and use a barrel lined with a heat resistant blanket and filled with sand. I make the molds out of foam, which melts away when you pour in the liquid metal. Here are links to the videos which explain the process:
