Re: need some casting help/ suggestions using solus proto
I found a high temp casting resin online, im thinking of experimenting with instead of directly printing my master, I will print a mold instead and then cast my masters with this high temperature casting resin. I can then easily polish up these resin masters and they should work much better in the v...

Re: need some casting help/ suggestions using solus proto
evidently the form labs high temp resin can survive vulcanization, I just don't know how the resolution is and I would have to reinstall the uv filter on my projector...just a pain in the ass...envisiontec has a high temp resin that achieves great resolution but I don't think we can buy it without a...

Re: need some casting help/ suggestions using solus proto
maybe it will work with a lower temperature silicone but lower temp and rtv silicones are considerably more expensive so the overwhelming majority of spin casters do not use them...most use natural rubber and that requires 350 degrees F...its just a shame because the resin is almost perfect..if it c...

Re: need some casting help/ suggestions using solus proto
this is a great response and I really appreciate the help. So your suggestion is to create silicone mold and then use the wax casts to investment cast to make my masters with and then use these to spin cast if I have a production order? it just seems like a lot of extra work considering im using a l...

finally found time to experiment with solus proto
ok so I was initially disappointed with the solus proto because I found that despite post curing, the prints did not survive standard vulcanization but after some experimentation, I found a method that works extremely well. two very important things, the first is that never vulcanize the same day as...

Re: warping and focus issue
so basically pull it out of the seating in the bracket and move the projector back a tad? this makes sense but will this not result in a slightly inaccurate final print scale?
