casting iron with thermite
(OP)
I'm working on a project that involves making a casting of a prototype of a beam clamp. I have some machinable casting material, but that won't make a prototype I can test. I don't have access to a forge or foundry, but I can make Thermite.
Does anyone have any techniques or ideas on how I can cast the pieces using Thermite? Any specific type of casting sand to use?

your best bet is to contact a casting firm that does investment casting.
