    01

    Print Pattern

    Your design is 3D printed in a castable polymer or wax.

    02

    Create Mould

    Investment or sand mould is built around the printed pattern.

    03

    Pour Metal

    Molten bronze, aluminium, or brass is poured and allowed to cool.

    04

    Finish

    Chasing, patina application, polishing, and final inspection.

    Moulds & Tooling

    Commissioning a mould, or the finished object

    Casting runs through three stages. Tell us which one you need from us — the mould itself, or the finished cast object.

    Schematic — not to scale

    1. 01

      Printed positive

      Your model is 3D printed as a pattern in a castable or burnout-friendly material.

    2. 02

      Mould

      A mould is built around the pattern, with a channel for the pour.

    3. 03

      Cast object

      Metal or glass is cast into the mould, then devested, finished and inspected.

    Do you need the mould, or the finished object? Tell us in your brief and we'll scope it accordingly.
