Abstract
A horizontal casting technique and mold for use specifically with shell molds and runner feeder sections. The runner feeder sections are assembled within the shell molds such that the ends of the runner feeder section protrude from the mold and can be flow connected to a runner feeder of an adjacent assembly. A plurality of these assemblies constitute the horizontal mold having a horizontal runner feeder and a plurality of shell molds in spaced, side-by-side relationship.
