Well folks! I discovered that my casting techinic is not the issue, nor the investment......it was all about the cure! I got the melody susie and cured each side for 10 minutes of 60 second stop and go. Afterwards, I found that my models were rock hard. I microwaved them and invested them as per Mark's (archem) instructions. The band and pendant I casted came out really good. I took pictures of the pendant for you guys to see. The thing I found after curing it in the melody susie and mine is that when I cut the supports they didn't shatter, but cut cleanly. I am doing some more casting this week. I will post more pictures soon! Thank you everyone for your help and support!
**There are small spots on the "U"s in Future.....but I'm having those fixed with a laser solder. I consider this a win, compared to all that happened before!
