Given the fact that Durabar is not available, so far I can tell, in a shape approximating a prism, I am considering making a simple prism-shaped grey cast iron 18" casting available. Since I will be making the pattern and casting it myself, the dimensions are negotiable. I'd be interested in some input as to optimal length, prism angles and face width. I think a very simple prism shape could be supplied ready to machine at a cost competitive with a Durabar rectangular shape. the prism-shaped casting would be far more convenient for the user as only facing would be required. I could also supply the casting with two milled faces. Such a casting (actually four of them) would fit in a a large USPS FRB. Such a casting would weigh something like 15 pounds.
