Might be nice if other, smaller companies like Hasselfree or Trollforge did something like this...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/237449/679529.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/237449/679529.page GMT
That makes it hard for a manufacturer to buy as they won't be able to trust it and it may damage their moulds if they get it to the wrong temperature, or it may result in miscastings because it doesn't flow in the way they would want it to, etc., etc.

Your best bet is to use it for raw material for drop casting your own metal models. Given you own a large pile of raw material, the cost of buying a crucible and some moulding latex is possibly a worthwhile investment. The kinds of variability in metal quality I mentioned above are not important for drop casting, whereas in the kind of centrifugal moulds larger manufacturers use they are more important.

A good place to start investigating casting for yourself is http://www.princeaugust.ie/
