Seeking lead on a Green Sand Cast Iron Foundry in Texas.

A special section just for steam engines and boilers, as without these you may as well fit a sail.

Good evening guys. Happy to report TULE has new firebox grates. Through contacts offered here, I came across SUPERIOR CAST METALS in Houston, Texas. (281) 703-6450 Jesse, the owner, did us a five piece run from our existing pattern and did an outstanding job at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend his workmanship and professionalism. I will not hesitate using him again for any future cast parts TULE may need.
