1. A method of catching overflow of a liquid fluid utilized to cast a component, the method comprising:
compacting sand to form a mold, with the mold including a first side and a second side spaced from each other along a first axis, and with the mold including a top surface between the first and second sides, and the top surface defining an opening; moving a cutting device along a second axis transverse to the first axis between a first position and a second position, with a cutter of the cutting device being in a disengaged position spaced from the top surface of the mold when the cutting device is in the first position and the cutter being in an engaged position engaging the top surface of the mold when the cutting device is in the second position; actuating the cutter of the cutting device when the cutting device is in the second position and the cutter is in the engaged position to remove sand from the top surface to define a recess therein to catch overflow of the liquid fluid, with the recess spaced from the opening; and utilizing at least one of a blocking mechanism, a blowing mechanism and an adjustment mechanism to assist the cutting device. |
