Printing with wax Filament
August 03, 2020 09:19AM
Hi there , Im involved in making spare parts for virtually any alloy steel part thats needed to be recast in low volumes . And now Ive masterd the Wax filament and its brilliant!! hard setting up at first but worth it . Here are pictures of my latest prints , a motorcycle headstock in 4 pieces then just drip some hot wax on it and weld it all together for casting !! I get the Wax Filament from Filament World here in Germany its called Moldlay ,1.75 ,so have fun stay safe all the best

Do you make a mold around it then melt out the wax, or straight pore into the wax in the mold?

Melt the wax out ,its better that PLA and leaves no residue afterwards.Great to work with .
