In 1956, Finn Magnus filed for bankruptcy. He eventually reorganized and entered into a partnership with Eugene Tracey, diversifying into manufacturing electric chord organs (and song chord books to use with them), changing the company's name to Magnus Organ Corporation. After their retirement in the 1970's {Magnus died in 1976}, they sold the company to Field Enterprises, publishers of the World Book Encyclopedia- who discontinued organ production and closed the factory- while continuing to publish the music books.
Burry's was eventually acquired by Quaker Oats in 1962. By 1991, it was owned by Sunshine Biscuit Company (which was bought out by Keebler in 1996- which itself was eventually acquired by Kellogg's). And their Girl Scout cookie business was taken over by ABC Cookie Bakers in 1989.
The Federal Reserve has stolen billions of dollars from America through inflation, and sent it off to foreign banking cartels since 1913...no, more like many trillions. They disguised themselves as a federal government entity, and took over the printing of all the US currency, charging us $1.00 of interest for every $1.00 printed. How they got away with this for so long, says alot about who runs our government and our news media.
Casting tolerance is simply a matter of designing oversized moulds to allow for shrinkage of final products and of course the quality control of of raw material
I'm guessing it was POSSIBLE, but not used on everything, since that tight of a tolerance isn't needed on everything. Surely parts of the mold were in that range. Now, the cavity? Depends on its shape, I imagine. If it was easy to machine and the part was a consistent cross-section with predictable shrinkage, it might have been possible. But plastics, especially thermoplastics, aren't usually designed down to the fourth decimal.

Watching these, I'm regularly amazed at how much technology we had back then!
A tip: watch movies at Flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching a lot of movies these days.
@Chance Trace yup, have been watching on Flixzone} for years myself =)
Or how too much, we have today.
It was only 63 years ago.
I mean we were less than a decade from standing on the moon.
Boy, if there’s one sound that’s guaranteed to melt the heart of your loved one - it’s plastic bagpipes!
Plastic bagpipe, must have sounded lovely........wonder why it didn't catch on?

Love that comment on inflation. If they only knew the future.
Uncontrolled inflation the obvious end to late stage capitalism. Capitalism and democracy are not synonymous.

1st comment, my life is completely love watching your videos
I'm not sure if I'm willing to believe they were managing to mold to .0001" back then.

This isn't the civil war.
The only big advantage we have now is cnc, which does nothing for tolerance, only automation.
