Making two castings from one pattern

[100model]

Hi everyone

I made a video about how to use one pattern with one pair of molding boxes to make two castings. Have a look at the video [ame]http://youtu.be/H0s40bcSIgw[/ame]

I'd like to see that being done with a split pattern.

It can be done with a split pattern by using a temporary partition in the middle of the molding boxes and making the mold in the normal way and then pulling the pattern out.Then the temporary partition is removed and then everything is repeated. You can have two separate gating systems or one for both molds.
