Made with the finest cherry wood, these flasks are custom-built to maintain their shape, withstand shock and resist moisture. Each board is carefully hand selected, then air dried for two years to insure its strength. Ends and sides are individually cut, mated, dovetailed, hot glued, machine locked, and mounted with steel wear strips for lasting rigidity and squareness. Accurate alignment of cope and drag is assured through expert craftsmanship. |

When using synthetic sands or higher squeeze pressures, the "Easy-Off" Flask operates with a spreading motion for a more rapid removal. Sections finished 1 1/8" on all standard size flasks, 1 1/4" and heavier on flasks of larger perimeter and depths. |
