Dear Joe

We would be very interested in participating in your program, subject to clearance from our patent advisors.

The LIPTOOL (TM) Rapid Tooling System works as follows:

1. Build a (suitably scaled) Master Pattern (RP, CNC, handmade, etc.)
2. Pour LIPTOOL material against Master Pattern to form the tool - cures in 1 hour at room temp.
3. Go injection moulding

For a multi-part tool, repeat step 2 as necessary.

I hope this simplistic overview is sufficient for now - if you would like further details please let me know.

I look forward to receiving the detailed program information.

Regards

Nick

Dear RP-ML:

Last year at RP&M '98 we had a Mini-Jector injection molding machine in our
booth and ran samples in a Direct SLA mold during the show. We wanted to
show everyone "first hand" one of the product development advancements that
our industry has provided - Production Material Parts In Days.

This year at RP&M '99 we are bringing back the machine and want to
demonstrate seven different Rapid Tooling techniques. One the first night
and three each of the two full days of the show.

We are looking to show a wide range of techniques and hand out samples
representing each process. We have found that handing out actual samples
from the process to be an affective way to draw attention instead of just
giving out brochures. People walk away with a tangible example of the
process. Four years ago we did a co-promotion with Keltool and produced a
3" tall thermoplastic rubber construction worker holding a Rapid Tooling
sign. We have handed out over ten thousand of these in the last few years
and if we have done our marketing correctly, most of you should be familiar
with it and hopefully have one sitting on your desks.

Anyone interested in participating in this program, please send me your
E-Mail address and a quick description of the Rapid Tooling process. We
will forward detailed information regarding the program.

Joe
