VB cans, or 4X for the northern Folks.    LOL
Sincerely KDX, I can imagine trying to make one fit would be quite a task.

it 2 mm to big alloy cc601

If 2mm too big means the outside dimensions are 2mm oversize, then I guess this is a miss.
Thanks for posting.  Many of smaller Foundries in Dandenong have closed.  Compliance  cost became prohibitive.

Not a problem KDX.

Are you going to persevere? I'm sure you will get plenty of orders once they are good to go....

Have fun in the shed  ;D

I recon if the casting is too big then the mould has been rapt to much. And if it is to small there is not enough contraction on the Pattern that you used (Honda Casting).
