My claim as my invention, and what I desire to secure by letters patent, is for an improved core box for making sand cores for castings, having its parts well guided in opening and closing, and having cutting edges at their lines of meeting, so that no sand can be retained between them to revent their closing exactly, and fitted to be placed partly open when oosely filled with tempered sand, which is suitably compressed by closing the core box, and the surplus sand at the same time pared off and thrown out by the edges, and thus making the core uniformly solid or hard in all its parts, and of so exact form that the hole made thereby in the castin will in many cases need no “reaming;” thus making better cores, j with greater despatch, than have usually been made by “reaming up,” so termed by moulders and founders.
