I have a number of FDM and resin 3D printers and can make one off functional prototypes or production runs of parts.
One of the most interesting jobs done recently is creating cast aluminium mould patterns for a 1911 Willys Overlander. The owner needed the water manifolds recreated from scratch as they had been largely destroyed by corrosion. The remnants were modelled as accurately as possible, then followed 3D printing the cores and core boxes. 3D printing makes this a very economical option compared to traditional patternmaking.




The printers are usually going full time on either production parts, customer prototypes or parts for my own projects in a variety of basic PLA or more engineering focused materials such as glass filled ABS and TPU;
