opposite of mold; a preservation type that forms within a mold; casts are usually three-dimensional and therefore preserve form
Pouring molten lead or sulphur into the die cavity to indicate the shape of the forging.
To form a plastic material into a definite shape by pouring it into a mold and letting it harden without applying external pressure. Can be accomplished with or without application of external heat either before or after pouring.
Lithified sediment (rock) infilling a natural mold, and providing a replica of the original organism. A similar process is also used to create man-made casts of fragile or rare specimens for display, research, or exchange with other museums.
Made by pouring molten metal into a mould, rather than by striking. Some authentic coins have been cast, but it is a technique often used for low quality forgeries.
The reproduction of mouth structures made by pouring plaster or stone into a mold
(1) To form a plastic object by pouring a fluid resin into an open mold where it hardens. (2) Casting, the finished product.
A stiff dressing or casing made of dressing impregnated with plastic if Paris or other hardening material such as plastic. Casts are used to immobilize various parts of the body in cases or fractures, dislocations, and moderate or severe sprains.
To form a spoon by pouring melted silver into a mold. Cast spoons aren't as crisply detailed as some embossed spoons. Gorham was a major producer of cast spoons in the 1890's. Illustration here.
To form a molten material into a desired shape by pouring into a mold and letting it harden.
A casing that immobilizes parts of the body that have been damaged, allowing them to heal undisturbed. It's usually made of a hardening material, such as plaster of Paris or fiberglass.
To form a plastic object by pouring a liquid plastic solution into a mold, which solidifies through a chemical reaction or cooling of the liquid.
Substance (glass, metal, plastic or other) injected into mold to reproduce form.
To make an object by pouring molten metal into a specially shaped mold and letting it harden.

A replica produced by filling a mold with a casting compound, such as plaster or plastic, and letting it harden inside the impression, taking on the shape and surface details of the original specimen.
the process of making a club head using a plastic mold and molten steel. The advantages of casting a golf club include being able to use more complex designs than a forging allows, consistency from head to head in size and shape, and the volume of heads that can be produced in a shorter period of time.
A general term describing a number of techniques where hot glass is poured into a mold to form a desired shape. It is quicker and easier than hand-blowing a piece.
A model kit part that was cast from a mold. In garage kits, molds are usually made from RTV rubber and the casts are made in polyurethane resin.

Bullets made by casting are said to be cast. Casting is a process for forming lead or lead alloy bullets where molten metal is poured into moulds and allowed to cool. Cast bullets are often made in alloys containing small amounts of other metals (e.g., antimony and/or tin) which make the bullets harder than pure lead bullets.

A sculptural object made by pouring a fluid or molten material into a hollow form/mould and allowing that material to harden.
wheels that are made from liquid metal being poured into a mold. Low pressure casting involves pouring into a mold, while counter pressure casting involves sucking the metal into the mold like a vaccuum. The counter pressure technique reduces impurities making the wheel much stronger than a low pressure cast rim.
To form into a particular shape by pouring fluid matter into a mold and allowing it to harden, such as making a picture frame ornament.
a reproduction of the details of a natural object (fossil) done by casting plaster into a mold.
(1) to form a plastic object by pouring a fluid monomer-polymer solution into an open mould where it finishes polymerising. (2) Forming plastic film and sheet by pouring the liquid resin onto a moving belt or by precipitation in a chemical bath.
To form molten metal into a particular shape by pouring it into a mold. A wax pattern is made, this can be hand made or made in a rubber or metal mold. The wax pattern is imbedded in investment (a plaster like substance that can withstand high heat). The wax is burned out of the investment, leaving a hollow mold. Metal is melted and poured into the mold. The cast piece is broken free of the mold.
Producing pottery by pouring liquid clay into molds.
To produce shapes by pouring fluid clay into moulds. The 'negative' moulds are usually of plaster of Paris, and made from a 'positive' so that when they wear out, new ones can be made.
a cast holds a broken bone in place as it heals, prevents or decreases muscle contractures, or provides immobilization, especially after surgery. Casts immobilize the joint above and the joint below the area that is to be kept straight and without motion. For example, a child with a forearm fracture will have a long arm cast to immobilize the wrist and elbow joints.
Tool created by the pouring of molten metal into molds and allowing it to harden.
