If I wanted to pour some skillets for example, what kind of iron would I want to ask for at the foundry?
Just plain grey iron? Ductile? I don’t know much about cast iron in general, but I know enough to know there are many varieties. Is there such a thing as “food grade” iron? I’ve used cast iron skillets for years, never gave much thought to what iron they’ve actually used to make them.
Mostly just a thought experiment right now, but was considering making some cookware as a potential product for a friends company.
Not done much work with machining castings at all really. I know it’s dirty work, and probably something I want to do but I’m at least giving it the due diligence.
