Started loosing heat...I have a 3D printer I made and I actually have some wax filament to try in it one day but so far haven't had the need to cast anything so I haven't tried printing/casting with it. The printer has spent most of the last year printing a working Enigma machine (which I haven't finished yet). I did 3D print a temporary ring type gun sight that I stuck on the radiator cap, mainly to annoy a friend. I have a nice Boyce motometer that will actually go there in practice.
The one with the hole in could be repaired if anyone wants to play with them?
After a little fettling they look like this...
Next I want to make a badge...
Hedd... I may need the number of your local forger... (ahem!)
...and has anyone got a 3d printer?
