A vent-forming apparatus for use in metal casting comprises a gas-permeable membrane with a lead-in tube attached to one surface and a breather tube attached to the opposite surface. The vent-forming apparatus may be used to create independent vents in the walls of shell-type molds used in the ceramic shell casting process for lost wax casting of ferrous and non-ferrous alloys. These vents exhaust gasses in the mold cavity to the atmosphere. The vent-forming apparatus also may be used in solid mold investment casting methods or in any other casting method in which venting is desirable or necessary.
