Castings are calculated to shrink from one- tenth to one-eighth of an inch to the foot; but, as nearly all machine castings are either turned or planed to an accurate size, the de...termina- tion of the exact amount of shrinkage is in a great measure immaterial. Then again, in cases where the moulder raps the pat- tern heavily, in order to withdraw it from the sand, the casting will show but little if any shrinkage.
