Has anyone ever used castings on a robot? I realize that there aren't a ton of opportunities where it really makes sense, but it seems like it would be a neat thing to do. I've lurked on
Home Model Engine Machinist Forum for a while, and the people there do some
insanely impressive castings in backyard foundries. I realize the average school is probably not okay with setting up a foundry in the machine shop, just wondering if someone had done it...

finished projects are cool, but the
build threads are better!)
