Scale, 1”=1 foot ideal

Existing casting: The use of an existing casting to create a new pattern will result in shrinkage of approximately 3/16” per linear foot, generating a slightly smaller new casting.

Submit a sketch, photo or other description for your desired casting and our in-house graphic art department will generate a proof for the pattern.
