Did you use the google search or the site search?

The google one is better - for now.

This may be the thread others are referring to:

Otherwise, perhaps it might be worthwhile to describe your situation in more detail.

Did you mean slag or sag? If it is slag,reasons are different and if sag or bend,then the response will be different. Please clarify. Your providing more details like alloy,parts to be cast,weight of each and number of pieces etc might help in getting more meaningful response.
