was made of plywood using Kadim 83 00:03:37,989 --> 00:03:41,309 pedestal was made of plywood using Kadim drawings as a guide this template was 84 00:03:41,309 --> 00:03:41,319 drawings as a guide this template was 85 00:03:41,319 --> 00:03:44,220 drawings as a guide this template was used as a pattern to cut foam slabs to 86 00:03:44,220 --> 00:03:44,230 used as a pattern to cut foam slabs to 87 00:03:44,230 --> 00:03:47,400 used as a pattern to cut foam slabs to the correct size and shape these pieces 88 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:47,410 the correct size and shape these pieces 89 00:03:47,410 --> 00:03:49,830 the correct size and shape these pieces of foam were glued together to create 90 00:03:49,830 --> 00:03:49,840 of foam were glued together to create 91 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,290 of foam were glued together to create the full-size model of the 92 00:03:52,290 --> 00:03:52,300 the full-size model of the 93 00:03:52,300 --> 00:03:55,300 the full-size model of the the phone model was then hollowed out to 94 00:03:55,300 --> 00:03:55,310 the phone model was then hollowed out to 95 00:03:55,310 --> 00:03:57,310 the phone model was then hollowed out to a wall thickness of one and a half to 96 00:03:57,310 --> 00:03:57,320 a wall thickness of one and a half to 97 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,430 a wall thickness of one and a half to two inches needed to satisfy good design 98 00:04:00,430 --> 00:04:00,440 two inches needed to satisfy good design 99 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,250 two inches needed to satisfy good design requirements of an aluminum casting this 100 00:04:03,250 --> 00:04:03,260 requirements of an aluminum casting this 101 00:04:03,260 --> 00:04:07,060 requirements of an aluminum casting this size and shape the full size foam 102 00:04:07,060 --> 00:04:07,070 size and shape the full size foam 103 00:04:07,070 --> 00:04:09,310 size and shape the full size foam pattern was then placed in a core box 104 00:04:09,310 --> 00:04:09,320 pattern was then placed in a core box 105 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,060 pattern was then placed in a core box and backfilled with foundry sand 106 00:04:12,060 --> 00:04:12,070 and backfilled with foundry sand 107 00:04:12,070 --> 00:04:15,310 and backfilled with foundry sand creating a styrofoam cavity which will 108 00:04:15,310 --> 00:04:15,320 creating a styrofoam cavity which will 109 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,830 creating a styrofoam cavity which will vaporize and be displaced by molten 110 00:04:17,830 --> 00:04:17,840 vaporize and be displaced by molten 111 00:04:17,840 --> 00:04:21,729 vaporize and be displaced by molten aluminum this process is known as lost 112 00:04:21,729 --> 00:04:21,739 aluminum this process is known as lost 113 00:04:21,739 --> 00:04:25,540 aluminum this process is known as lost foam casting the entire casting was 114 00:04:25,540 --> 00:04:25,550 foam casting the entire casting was 115 00:04:25,550 --> 00:04:28,600 foam casting the entire casting was ground smooth and shot blasted to 116 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:28,610 ground smooth and shot blasted to 117 00:04:28,610 --> 00:04:31,950 ground smooth and shot blasted to achieve the desired surface texture 118 00:04:31,950 --> 00:04:31,960 achieve the desired surface texture 119 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,690 achieve the desired surface texture while a pedestal was being prepared the 120 00:04:34,690 --> 00:04:34,700 while a pedestal was being prepared the 121 00:04:34,700 --> 00:04:36,610 while a pedestal was being prepared the halves of the sphere were spun from 122 00:04:36,610 --> 00:04:36,620 halves of the sphere were spun from 123 00:04:36,620 --> 00:04:40,270 halves of the sphere were spun from stainless steel plate an access hole was 124 00:04:40,270 --> 00:04:40,280 stainless steel plate an access hole was 125 00:04:40,280 --> 00:04:42,220 stainless steel plate an access hole was machined through the base of the sphere 126 00:04:42,220 --> 00:04:42,230 machined through the base of the sphere 127 00:04:42,230 --> 00:04:45,760 machined through the base of the sphere to provide a loading port the halves 128 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:45,770 to provide a loading port the halves 129 00:04:45,770 --> 00:04:48,010 to provide a loading port the halves were then welded together and polished 130 00:04:48,010 --> 00:04:48,020 were then welded together and polished 131 00:04:48,020 --> 00:04:53,200 were then welded together and polished to a smooth finish here at lewes the 132 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:53,210 to a smooth finish here at lewes the 133 00:04:53,210 --> 00:04:55,810 to a
