THE 3DWAXMILLER CLUB.

Welcome Tfoster, have fun, if we can help just ask. I have been milling for two and a half years and when I have a problem, someone helps and teaches me what I did wrong, teach me not to do it again.

Great group of millers.

Is this a design for a customer, stock or just for fun?

Todd Michael

Pat, sounds like we are on the same page as each other. I have been flying solo for months now, actually beginning to like the feel again. Just negotiated a 50% reduction in rent, and a few other freebies. So I am getting profitable again. I see you run the 540? I really have the itch to get a more ...

Don't get me wrong, I truly like seeing what you come up with. I thinking I am more and more jealous with the time you have to create!

I am trying to find more time for creating myself!

Keep up the good work!

Buy some gold, make some jewelry, quit playing with plastic.

Do you teach Rhino?

Todd Michael

Pat; do you have a source for plastic injection, or even better yet a source for White metal casting?

Todd Michael

Pat; some cool new trends I am seeing out your way. So do you mill the plastic out of a solid stock like wax or what?

Can I come work for you, you are having toooooo fun over there!

Check out this post thread, it may give your some help, as for printing from 3D engrave I don't think there is a way that I have heard of yet. My understanding is you need to design in another program to get rendering capabilities. IF you hear different, please let me know? Todd Michael http://www.3...

Curious to see other set-ups! In reading through a lot of post I hear of alignment concerns and questions. I have 3 plates now. 1. Rotary 2. Flat I made with wooden watch vise 3. and now the flipper Questions I have heard and read are. 1. Leaving the 3D wax mill rail on. 2. Using the short shaft. 3....

Jeff is awesome for thinking about someone other than him self, the MDX is an awesome tool for me <us>. I am not sure I would have been as generous with my ability and time as he and you all have been. It makes me feel good to be a part of this growing group, and I like helping when I can and learni...

Hello all, got my mill in June of 2008, thought I posted back then, and well I didn't. So now I am. It was a slow start for me, but now run the mill almost daily, some times more than once on the same job. Love the mill, haven't hand carved a wax almost since the beginning. Keep posting all, see ya ...

Yes, setting is much easlier, and I have done setting from drilling and raising, carving prong in wax, and both drove me nuts. Even steered away from those jobs, becaus of that. Not anymore, will take on all comers, well I think I will. The learning curve was great for me, but the forum and all your...

I am amazed at how much I have learned and again doing this job has proved to be yet another major learning curve for me. Hint for another newbie to do this type of job, 1. Check finger size before finishing, so you don 't have to redo 2. Check your layout 6 million times a. I actually milled the fi...
