hi.

I have some highly detailed miniatures which I want printed in metal with extremely good quality. Any hub recommendations?

thanks

You may have better luck having a positive printed for a mold and then having it cast in metal. Also, what is extremely good quality? Could you attach a picture of your model with scale?

Thanks for the response, the height should be about 60 mm. please see attached photo. What do you think? When I say extremely good quality I intend to have all the details present in the picture when printed.

Hi Kim

I could print this in a resin at very high quality on the Envisiontec Perfactory, but not metal unfortunately.

Regards

Adam

Hi, our company printing using WAX and Solidscape printers, the most accurate in market and the most easy castable. however, the cost per print is not cheap, approximate cost will be about £370

ok! good to know. Will be in touch in case I can’t find any metal printer.

hi.

do you cast them as well?

PrecisionWax · 2015-09-29T11:13:15.000Z

we don’t cast them. Price just for WAX models

Hi

metal printers are extremely expensive and I don’t think think anyone on the hubs has one. If you want them 3D printed from metal then your are best off using imaterialise or shapeways.
