Reprap wax printing?

Hi there sorry if this is an old or repeated question but can the reprap be modified to print using wax instead of plastic?

This would be handy for making wax molds or models.

Thanks

Jason

It's an old question. You might want to do a search of the forum with the term "wax" to get up to date.

Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.

Hello,

Search for WAX in the forum does not yield any results

Kind Regards

3 letter searches don't work any more. Most materials we deal with are 3 letters so unless you are interested in HDPE use a Google search with site:forums.reprap.org.

There's a solution:

I'll ping Jonathan about it.

Remember, you're all RepRap developers (once you've joined the super-secret developer mailing list), and the wiki, RepRap.org, [reprap.org] is for everyone and everything! grinning smiley
