People keep skipping the pre-heat on their pouring ladles and it's wrecking the iron temperature.

Serious question, I always thought the old green sand was fine for our small castings.

PSA: I thought those new ceramic pouring cups were just overpriced hype, but after trying one from the supply truck last Tuesday, I'm a total convert because it cut my spruing time by almost 15 minutes on a 40-piece run.
