Molding metal by conventional casting methods can be an expensive, time consuming endeavor. However, with 3d printed molds and low temp alloys, it is now possible to create 3d printed molds quickly and cost-effectively as shown here. The final molded pieces can be sanded, polished or painted and withstand more punishment than 3d printed pieces will. Now, you can go from concept to CAD to metal casting in less than a day!
