The art of giving form to metals by Fusion Casting, Forging, Drawing, Hammering, StampingExtension & Compressure, Boring Filing
Chizzling, Grinding, Bending, Soldering.

Sciences from which
the operations in all
the branches of this
art may be improved.

Natural philosophy
as it relates to the
laws of motion.

Chemistry
In perfecting the preparation
of metals so
as to give them the
qualities of.
1. Malleability
2. Hardness
3. Uniformity of texture
4. Elasticity
5. Power of bearing sudden
expansion & contraction by
heat without breaking.

And in pointing out
the means by which the
above qualities may be
given, or removed, the giving avoided during
the various operations in
their manufacture.

Information, cautions,
dexterity necessary for
the practice of casting
metals by pouring.*

A knowledge of natural
philosophy in as
far as relates to expansion
& contraction
by change of heart, or
degree of moisture, in
order to with a view
to accuracy of form, or
strength & uniformity
of texture.

Relative powers of
different bodies to conduct
heat.

Effect of the presence
or exclusion of air.

Difference of the specific
gravity of mixtures
with a view to
uniformity of texture.

Effect of sudden expansion
or contraction from
sudden & unequal change
of temperature.

Dexterity in pouring
the fluid metal into
the mould.

Dexterity in pouring
the fluid metal into
the mould so as not
to disarrange its parts

*As also in the art
of giving form by casting
to

Glass compositions
Uniform substances flu
fluid at the heat of boiling water

Powders united mixed with fluids

Sciences from which
an improvement of the
art of casting may be
derived

Natural philosophy

with respect to the
means of excluding permanently
elastic or
other elastic fluids &
non-elastic fluids.

Chemistry
With respect to the prevention
of the generation
of elastic fluids.
With respect to the degree
of heat at which particular
metals or mixtures of
metals can be cast so as
to receive the desired form
most perfectly, & at which
the metal will retain an
homogeneous
texture form in cooling.
