Hello all, I'm Zeb. Cool place you have here. I've posted a little bit over on backyardmetalcasting, I've finally got an oil burning furnace up and running, haven't cast anything with it yet :( been too busy moving to a new place, where I'll be able to set up a proper foundry instead of doing it in my driveway. Most of my interests revolve around firearms and motorcycles, so most of the stuff I cast are for them. I'm working on a big bore air rifle as of now and have cast a riser for it from aluminum bronze, I've had alot of interest in that project, and one day I may open up shop in building custom big bore air rifles, and I'll definatly be coming up with a design that will employ casting.
Soon I'll be casting a new upper tripple clamp for a turbocharged 87 ZX1000 that I'm building, I'll take lots of pics, I've got the pattern pretty well worked out, but haven't rammed it up in greensand yet, still way too much stuff on the honey do list. Anyhoo, just thought I'd stop and say Hi, and you've got a pretty cool place here.

Zeb

Is that a reference to being married 36 years or is she just a fast writer?
