Best Answer

You would have to make a core using a plaster based investment or a resin bound sand. The core would have to be supported in the centre of the sand mould by core pins which leave holes that have to be filled after the core material is removed.

Difference between investment casting and sand casting?

In the Sand Casting process, a pattern of the desired finished part including the metal delivery system is constructed out of hardwood, urethane, metal or foam. Sand containing bonding material to retain its shape is packed around the pattern. The pattern is removed from the bonded sand, leaving a cavity in the shape of the part. Molten metal is poured into the cavity and the metal solidifies. The sand is removed though a shakeout process. Other cast attachments, including the metal delivery system, are trimmed leaving the desired part. Internal passageways, including intricate structures, can be included in the casting by adding cores during the molding process. This makes sand casting a popular selection for pump and valve applications. Sand castings would typically be at least partially machined before use.Investment castings are typically selected because they can be produced with fine detail, excellent "as-cast" surface finish, and shaped into internal or external features, thin walls, and internal passageways to get to a near net shape. This often leads to significant customer cost savings in material, labor and machining.

Why are sand dunes important?

Sand or fine particles, when blown by the wind, will form ridges, called sand dunes. The wind on their upwind face is subject to a slightly higher wind velocity - caused by the dune's obstruction itself. This upwind slope will have a rounded shape. Beyond the crest, the sand will drop out thus creating a hollow curved shape.

Why might you think that sand is liquid?

You would only think that if you were talking about large amounts of sand on grain of sand is not a liquid however a-ton of sand doesn't hold any defined shape. Liquids don't have a defined shape but does have mass. Solids have mass and a defined shape. Gasses have no shape nor mass.
