Laminated Object Manufacturing Information (LOM) Information
and Definition and how it’s used in Rapid Prototyping.
Laminated Object Manufacturing or LMO is a system used for
rapid prototyping. It consists of adhesive ? coated layers of plastic or paper
that are stuck together with the help of glue and then cut into an appropriate
shape with the help of a laser cutter or a knife.

Learn about Lost Foam
Metal Casting, and Metal Casting Information
Lost
Foam Casting is a relatively new casting process compared to other metal
casting procedures that date far back into antiquity. The first patent for Lost
Foam Casting was made in 1958 but it was not until 1964 that what we know
commonly as Lost Foam Casting was introduced.

Learn about Green Sand, Green Sand Filter and Green Sand
Molding.
Sand
casting is the most ancient form of metal casting and has been around since at
least Ancient Egypt. Many metal casters prefer using sand casting over many of
the other forms of processes because it’s cheap and the sand used is readily
available.
Many experienced metal casters will continue to use sand casting even though
their abilities and resources allow them to use the other metal casting methods
like Lost Wax Casting or Investment Casting. Sand casting involves less
material and less effort than the other casting methods. Sand casting is a
great way for new casters to get into the trade.

Learn about Casting Patterns and the different types of
Casting Patterns
A casting pattern is
basically a shaped form of either metal or wood where sand is packed around it
in the mold. When this pattern is removed, the resulting cavity would be
exactly the shape of the pattern object that was to be cast. The casting
pattern should however be designed in order to be easily removed without any
damage done to the mold. The pattern should be also be perfectly dimensioned
and should be very durable for the intended use. The patterns that are used in
sand casting can be made of plastic, metal, wood or any other material. The
casting patterns are made to the right standards of construction this is
basically because they can last for a reasonable time. The durability of the
pattern would however depend according to the quality of grade in the casting
pattern. If the pattern is made of right quality then they would be constantly
providing dimensionally perfect casting patterns.

When I was young, my mother was very much into hand built pottery. She became pretty good at it and started attending more and more Arts and Crafts shows. To get into the bigger, well known shows you had to send pictures of your work in advance for the promoters to decide if your work was good enough to be in their show. Quite often there were several people (a jury of judges) that would determine the quality of your work based on the quality of your photos.
