  • Osteometrics | France Casting

    Osteometric Boards and Spreading Calipers Please Contact us by -or- to order or request an estimate. Laboratory Osteometric Board $1100.00 Features 1" thick acrylic base sheet and Kydex vertical measurement planes for extreme durability. Constructed of acrylic, aluminum, brass, and stainless steel. Provides the durability and accuracy required for years of reliable service. Provides unparalleled linear tracking and fluidity of motion. Measurement is accomplished via a linear scale (1/2 mm increment) mounted and indexed to the rear of the board. End planes are removable for ease of shipment and storage. ASME standardized. Do not use the mounted scale alone to measure mid-shaft. The scale is offset to compensate for the thickness of the measuring plates and mounting point. Field Osteometric Board $799.00 -Composed of high impact Plexiglas and aluminum -Reduced weight by over 70% compared to older boards. -The Field Osteometric board features the same measurement method as the Laboratory Osteometric Board minus the rod and bearing assembly -Collapsible to 12" x 6.5" x 1 1/2". -Scales are laser etched directly onto the board's base along with guide lines (cm). -Constructed of mostly Plexiglas. -Board can be customized with your name or identification mark at no extra cost. -ASME standardized. Field Osteometric Board: Student Edition $99.00 -Accurate to .5mm -Manufactured of 1/4" -Black Laser Etched Acrylic. -Narrower measuring surface (than standard board) and no integrated vertical measuring planes. -You provide the vertical measuring surfaces (examples: hard cover books, wooden blocks, etc.). -Splits into two pieces for portability -ASME standardized. -Comes with a microfiber sleeve for cleaning and storage. Spreading Calipers $525.00 Based on the same dimensions and design as the classic instrument that has been used by anthropologists since the beginning of last century but updated with modern materials and utilizing state of the art manufacturing techniques. Main body is machined out of aircraft grade 1/4 inch aluminum plate. Scale is machined stainless and permanently laser engraved 0 - 30 cm in 1mm increments. Measuring surface options: Ground stainless steel ball ends Assure accuracy after long term use Prevent damage to the measured specimen. Ground pointed ends For precise measurement. Joint surface utilizes a stainless steel contact plate to afford even friction along the measurement range eliminating the need for a thumb lock. Entire unit weighs in at less than 5 and 1/2 ounces. Main body dimensions are 12" x 4" when closed. ASME standardized. Spreading Calipers: Student $119.00 Body and scale machined from 1.5mm thick 316 Stainless Steel for durability and savings Index made of machined naval brass Joints secured by aluminum rivets Scales laser etched in same increments as the standard spreading caliper with interpolation to .5mm accuracy possible Very durable and will last years of abuse in the lab. Every Caliper is calibrated and checked using the same method as the standard spreading calipers. ASME standardized. If arms ever become bent, it is very easy to return them to flat. If they seem damaged beyond the ability for you to repair, send them to me and I will fix it for free if at all possible.

    Frequently Asked Questions Do you provide International delivery? Postage and handling charges vary by item, size of order, delivery service requested and final destination. For the most accurate estimate, please contact us by e-mail or phone. Our default shipping method currently is FedEx International shipping (economy or priority depending on location) because it is significantly more reliable than other international shipping methods and is delivered direct to your door, and not therefore held up in customs. For most international shipping orders this means a minimum of around $60 per box shipped or 10-12% of the total order for large orders. This should provide a rough estimate for budgeting purposes. Less expensive as well as more expensive methods are also available upon request. Please contact us for specific shipping information. Note: All formal estimates come with an accurate shipping quote. ​ How do I return an item? SATISFACTION IS GUARANTEED! If, for ANY reason, you are not completely satisfied with a cast, please return it for exchange or refund. Contact Us CUSTOMER CARE As casting technology has evolved, our replicas have evolved through three basic materials. We began in 1986 with replicas made of plaster impregnated with polyurethane. These were detailed but fragile. We then made casts in epoxy, which was much more durable, but dangerous and difficult for us to pour and trim (though safe in the final product). We are currently using a resin that is safer for us, and gives incredible detail in a durable cast. CLEANING If you own an epoxy or today’s resin cast, you may clean the cast with soap and water or mineral spirits. Mineral spirits may remove some of the oil paint wash used to accentuate detail, but it will not harm the cast itself. You could even put the casts in a dishwasher (ok, maybe you don’t want to do that, but you could!). If you own a plaster cast, you may clean it with a damp cloth using a cleaning solution (like Orange Clean or Windex), but do not soak the cast. Plaster is reasonably strong when it is cured and dry, but it weakens when wet. If your cast gets very wet, just set it aside and let it dry. REPAIR Even though today’s resin cast is durable, students are experts at blunt force trauma to teaching materials, and accidents may happen. With any broken cast (plaster, epoxy, or today’s resin), use 5-minute epoxy for the repairs. If you wish, you may use Super Glue on the epoxy or resin, but it doesn’t work very well on the plaster. If you would like us to repair the cast, give us a call! Sources Partial Bibliography for SA001 through SA010 ​ Brooks, S. & Suchey, J.M.

    How are we doing this? France Casting has an agreement with the National Museums of Kenya to be their distributors. Our agreement allows us to accept purchase orders for National Museums of Kenya casts. By making these casts available through France Casting, we are expanding the opportunity for many of you to purchase genuine National Museums of Kenya casts. Why are we doing this? You deserve an accurate cast made from the original, not material estimated from photographs or measurements of a cast of the specimen. If you buy directly from the National Museums of Kenya or indirectly through France Casting, you are providing support for the museums in Kenya. Most importantly, you contribute to the continuation of field work efforts to locate more of these magnificent finds. Are we making money on the deal? ​ The price of the cast is the same to you, whether offered by France Casting or from the National Museums of Kenya. They discount the price of each cast to us just enough to cover our efforts in making this process possible. KNM ER 23000 cranium superior KP 29283 maxilla halves articulated LH5 maxilla KNM ER 23000 cranium superior 1/7 Why Should you buy from us? Every cast you buy directly from The National Museums of Kenya or through France Casting gives some assurance that the incredible research programs engaged in locating, excavating, studying, casting, and distributing the original fossils will continue. The National Museums of Kenya have requested both respect for their products and that other possible sources not duplicate those products without permission. France Casting has put together this program in order to insure that high quality casts will be available to those who expect that quality. Buying from other suppliers provides no guarantee of support for the National Museums of Kenya or their continuing research efforts. The availability of France Casting as an intermediary distributor was developed principally in order to facilitate purchases from Kenya in circumstances where there may be some hesitancy with ordering from a foreign source.
