Aluminium casting
Anyone here (preferably in the Adelaide area) that can do good quality Aluminium castings?
As part of my Grinder restoration https://www.woodworkforums.com/f65/keeping-jones-184859 if I decide to replicate the overhead shaft arrangement I'll probably end up needing 4 off 3-step pulleys - the largest one would be just under 12" diameter.

It's been a few years, but I have used castech in wingfield moss road I think highly recommend and a little foundry in Magill can't remember the name that I wouldn't recommend ( loads of porosity and blow holes) all my castings from castech were done in CP 601 and heat treated machined well and have a great finish
