Last week I got some books on investment casting and I've had a chance to read most of the chapters so I thought I would do a quick review.

Anyone who wants to get into investment casting should definitely have these two in their library:

Notably, Edwin wants you to know that this process is not for the "Tyro". True dat, if you try to treat it that way you are in for a whole lot of pain - this sets you up with the right mindset to succeed from the start, if you are doing it at all.

As for the rest of the books on that table, total garbage. Do yourself a favor and don't buy them. There was hardly a sentence worth reading.
