Aluminium sculpture to be CNC'ed

[Jonathan]

You can use either, but here wax is going to be easier as there's no obvious place to split the mould to get a former out.

Nice link from 'How it's made'- didn't know there were rapid prototypers that use metal, not plastic. How it's made is such a good program, even better if you mute it.

You can even print the wax models for casting now,amazing stuff!!,if my shed and bank balance were bigger,id have it all:lol:

dave if this is an option to you, it might be worth you having a word with kevin at http://rapido3d.co.uk/ great chap knows his stuff

Thanks Chip

I will send Kevin off the 3D file to see what he makes of it....yes if it could be printed in aluminium this would be amazing not sure my £800 budget would stretch to it though...
