    • A method for forming integral extensions on the end (4) of directionally oriented, superalloy articles (2), such as airfoil blading members or other components used in gas turbine or other turbine engines. An extension is formed directly on an article by casting a compatible molten material (26) from a reservoir (80) into a ceramic mold (16) that is attached on an end of the article, followed by cooling of the end under controlled conditions sufficient to cause an integral extension to solidify on the article. A ceramic mold is utilized over the end of the article, with a mold cavity that generally defines the shape of the extension to be formed. The mold may be formed in situ on the mandrel, or preformed and attached to the subject article over the madrel. Extensions formed by the method of this invention have a microstructure that is continuous and compatible with that of the article. Such microstructures may include epitaxial growth of the extension from the microstructure of the article. The method establishes a temperature gradient within the article during solidification that may be further controlled by auxiliary heating and/or cooling of the article and/or extension during the practice of the method.
