Convert Foundry to CNC
« on: 02/02/15 10:16 UTC »
Kind of Off-The-Wall, but...

Do-It has the information (to some degree) on their Foundry (?) Molds that we pour lead into.  In the future, might some of those designs be available in a CNC-cut mold?  Would doing so allow more flexibility in options?

Cnc cut lead molds are great.  Uo own a few and I like them. Mine have hook hangers in the. So everything stays where it needs to as you close the mold.  Ultra molds will cut them for you and so will Shawn Collins.

I don't see Do-It getting into the business of CNC lead molds.
They have always maintained they do not make custom molds.
I have 20 or so CNC molds and I love them.
But I don't love the price as much.
Mine have run me from $135-$300 each one.
I use Shawn Collins or Bob @ CNC molds n stuff.
Both do excellent work.
