Production Specifics
Fraser Waugh uses the traditional process of Green Sand Moulding which is an age old traditional process in foundry work. Typical clients include blacksmiths, colleges and the public. Using Green Sand Moulding, Fraser is able to produce anything from bespoke one off’s through to batch production. Projects range from typical cast iron architectural pieces such as gates, railings and fireplaces through to artwork and crafts. If you’re looking to begin a project it’s best to get in touch with a rough drawing or image of what you’re looking to produce.
