[QUOTE="25WSM, post: 1873810, member: 38048"] My father in law owns one of the biggest steel bar companies in oh. Casting of the bars is technically correct but a loose term of the word casting. The round bars are made round before the casting cools down. So basically they are cast for a few moments before getting formed into round stock. So yeah nothing like a sand casting method where the metal sits till cool. I think the term casting is a bad choice of words but it is what they call it. I would call it partial temporary forming. But what do I know. I just use it when it all done. Shep [/QUOTE]
