A METHOD OF MAKING CORED CASTING MOULDS COMPRISING THE STEPS OF FORMING A FIRST DOUBLE SIDED SAND-MOULD WITH A MOULD SURFACE ON EACH OF TWO OPPOSITE SIDES THEREOF, EACH OF SAID MOULD SURFACES FORMING A PART OF A CASTING CAVITY AND AT LEAST ONE OF THEM BEING IN THE FORM OF A DEPRESSION IN ITS RESPECTIVE SIDE OF THE MOULD; BLOWING A CORE IN A CAVITY OF A CORE-BOX AT A POSITION DISPLACED FROM SAID MOULD; MOVING AT LEAST A PART OF SAID CORE-BOX WITH SAID CORE TO A POSITION IN WHICH IT LIES ADJACENT TO THE MOULD WITH THE CORE ENGAGING IN SAID DEPRESSIONS ON ONE SIDE OF SAID MOULD; WITHDRAWING SAID CORE-BOX PART FROM SAID MOULD WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY URGING SAID COREBOX PART AND SAID CORE APART WHEREBY TO CAUSE SAID CORE TO REMAIN IN SAID DEPRESSION IN SAID MOULD; FORMING A SECOND DOUBLE SIDED SAND-MOULD WITH A MOULD SURFACE ON EACH OF TWO OPPOSITE SIDES THEREOF; MOVING SAID SECOND MOULD TO A POSITION IN WHICH IT COMPLETES SAID CASTING CAVITY WITHIN WHICH SAID CORE REMAINS; BLOWING A SECOND CORE IN A CAVITY OF A CORE-BOX AT A POSITION DISPLACED FROM SAID FIRST AND SECOND MOULDS; MOVING AT LEAST A PART OF SAID CORE-BOX WITH SAID CORE TO A POSITION IN WHICH IT LIES ADJACENT TO THAT SIDE OF THE SECOND MOULD REMOTE FROM SAID FIRST MOULD AND WITH THE CORE ENGAGING IN THE DEPRESSION ON THAT SIDE OF SAID SECOND MOULD REMOTE FROM SAID FIRST MOULD; WITHDRAWING SAID CORE-BOX FROM SAID SECOND MOULD WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY URGING SAID CORE-BOX PART AND CORE APART WHEREBY TO CAUSE SAID CORE TO REMAIN IN SAID CASTING CAVITY; FORMING A THIRD DOUBLE SIDED SANDMOULD; AND MOVING SAID THIRD MOULD TO A POSITION IN WHICH IT COMPLETES SAID CASTING CAVITY OF SAID SECOND MOULD, THE FOREGOING PROCESS BEING CONTINUED INDEFINITELY WITH SUCCESSIVE CORES AND MOULDS.
