Another useful tool for your backyard workshop is the foundry. For the hobbyist, it is a must have, specially when you plan to build your own parts. The foundry is the best companion for lathe machine.
You can design and mold your own parts and accessories, from the smallest bolt or even building your own engine. I'm not talking about the big foundry type, i'm talking about a homemade garbage can size foundry. Made from recycled cans and bricks.. this simple foundry, easy to build yet functional.
Here are some links that demonstrates what im talking :
