Note: The Artful Sourcing blog has been discontinued.

Part I of our Artful Sourcing series on castings can be found here. Part II of our series will be posted this week, but if you are interested in exploring die casting further, I want to recommend the excellent website of the North American Die Casting Association (NADCA).

This helpful resource not only provides a good introduction to the basics of die casting, it also provides a lot of technical information for those actively considering die casting or designing parts for die casting.

At Baselodge we are proud to represent Chicago White Metal in Bensenville, IL. CWM is a member of the NADCA. CWM’s Die Cast Design Center is a wealth of information in its own right. We encourage you to register for the design center and access a wide variety of data and documents about die casting.
