136 MODEEN MOULDING AND PATTERN-MAKING. The method of casting the mortar is shown at Figs. 137 and 138, and requires very little explanation. As will be seen by the drawing, it is moulded in an iron flask. Two blowers 1" in diameter, to let off the gas, are shown at H H, Fig. 138. The main feeders… … Fig. 139. should be W in diameter, and from each of these make two branch feeders 2^ X 1". The risers KKare 3" in diameter at the top, and taper down to 2" at the bot- tom.
