Hey guys....
I have been throwing around some ideas, and wanted to ask the experts there thoughts on the subject of moulding and casting.
Whats the most cost effective way to get a part moulded and cast?
Example - I have a plug I need made for some PVC pipes I am building for a prop for a film project. The plugs are the most intricate, and the time to make each one would be ridiculous. Casting them up would be great, but... Im not sure whats the best way to do it.
I feel it can be made in a one piece mould, but whats the best "bang for your buck?" Smooth-on, sealing rubber, ????
Love to see what people have to suggest, I have a feeling many others would also love to work out whats the best way to make parts.
For the record, I need 10 parts made... if that helps...
Thanks in advance...
