hello people.
trying to establish some sizes for 2-1b medical droid microphone.
on the droid right now there appears to be a 55SW mic with the HML lettering near the bottom hole.
everyman and his dog have been buying 55SH. (including me)
personally i believe this is a replacement and we don't see HML on the screen, there is a noticeable repair on the droid now
i think it probably took a dive face first.............
I take my molds from a head casting, the original sculpt is long gone.
i fully understand there can be shrinkage from original to cast,
so the purpose of this thread is to establish if there is a size difference between the 55SW AND 55SH
the cast from where i take my molds used a 55SH and it comes out at 52.4mm wide (resin)
i just measured a 55SW (real metal) and it's coming out at 56.4mm wide
4mm of difference, which i feel is too much for shrinkage alone.
so if i take a mold of my resin mic, the next gen casting will be even smaller.
if you have a 55SH could you measure the width please (side to side)?
thanks
