Cetrifugal Casting Machine Purchase

Proposer

Tim Parnell

Date proposed

Monday 18th September 2023

Date for Decision

30 Sept 2023

Cost

Approximately £500 - but cost could be offset £300 with sale of centricast machine.

What is being asked for

Purchase the 2 centrifugal casting machines for £250. Purchase electric melting pot for White Metal/Silver/Gold/Copper £250

Donor machine will be stripped of parts and the metal sold for scrap - No idea of cost. Or Converted to potters wheel (suggestion from Tom Goff)

Sell the Tiranti Centricast for approx £300. Meaning overall cost to Hackspace approx £200.

Why/how this will be good to have

Enable members to cast small white metal parts, miniatures, key fobs, costume jewellery.
