Casting a custom intake manifold for my 74cc Tomos Café Racer project. When building a custom bike you face these kind of problems that no aftermarket product fits. So you make it yourself and learn new things on the way! This is my first time melting and casting aluminium and it went surprisingly well. The mold and core mold are both made from oil casting sand and it worked good in combination with the 3D-printed mold pieces. If you got inspired to try this yourself I highly advise watching other videos about the process and safety. You don't want hot metal splashing on your skin... That said, have fun watching me being a professional in my backyard :)

I normally stop watching videos where the RU-vidr doesn't explain what they are doing pretty quick, but no explanation is needed here. The editing speaks for itself.

Bravo, congrats from Croatia. I was Tomos rider 30-35 years ago and side intake was my favorite. My last Tomos project was CTX and it was powerfull like hell

He Bro, I am definitely new to your channel!!! I stumbled across the video where you smelted aluminum to forge a intake for your Tomos! I purchased a Tomos at a road side sale in a nearby town, got it home & really did nothing with it until 1 day I started looking at it & realized that there is no ID tag or, vin tag or anything! I am unaware if they have to be titled & plated or what? I looked up the engine & it has the bigger engine! The oil line was disconnected so, must run pre-mix which, I have never done! My Yamaha had a oil container & oil injection so, I never had to pre-mix it. I took the carb apart to see IF it needed cleaned but, it looked okay so, I cleaned it then suddenly, I had to move! The carb & parts are stored beside it, offsite at a storage place. How much oil do I need to mix per gall of gas? CAN THEY BE DRIVEN ON THE STREET IN OHIO? If I need to register it, I really don't know how to proceed? It's missing a peddle! & the side skirts, it's all white & black, mostly white with white mag wheels.

oil premix is usually 1:50 ratio. I don't know anything about rules in the US but in the Netherlands it has to be registered and insured
@t.r.8386

Premixing is better, 2% of oil, but use fully synthetic two stroke oil

​@Tomology also use a support raster underneath the first sand form. I am sure you need only half of the sand. Can you reuse the sand after casting? I still want to try this also one day
