Why would you not CNC wax mill... much better surface finish for this type
of application where there are no undercuts

Frank,
I was going to chime in about using the Thermojet as well. It just seemed
you were only interested in Projet and Solid-Scape. I would like to add to
Shanes comments that as long as the back doesn't have much detail you should
be good to go. The top surface can have plenty of detail, the Thermojet
just doesn't do well with undercuts and the bottom surface because of its
solid support structure. If you don't get any takers for Projet or
Solid-Scape, I would be happy to help.
Regards,

Hi Frank,
If the seal has a flat back without detail, the ThermoJet would be a good
choice too if someone still has one working.

HI,
I am building a university seal model to make a silver casting, and I need
to make 4 wax models for investment casting. The models are 3-in in
diameter and about 1/2-in thick. I am looking for a company or person that
has the capability to build them with a ProJet or a Solid-Scape machine. We
would trade services with double gain for the one that does it. We have
SLA, FDM, Objet, SLS, ARCAM, Zcorp and other non commercial technologies
that we would trade services for. If interested please contact me by Email
or phone.
Thanks,
Frank Medina
