Casting silver signet rings from 3D print - 500g silver 925
In this video we make a series of silver signet rings for friends. They sent us their 3D models, which we printed. We made a wax 'tree' from the 3D prints and cast them using the lost wax method. We needed about 500g of 925 silver for the casting, and we finish the finished castings by hand.
The key in making this type of signet ring is the correct firing and casting of the printed patterns. It is easy to find defects on the surface in places where there are decorative elements. It is very difficult to repair them later. Therefore, correct casting is the key to success in such jewellery. Some of the signet rings have also been gold-plated.
Similar signet rings can be made to order. Please feel free to contact us!

Super filmik 👷👍
Beautiful work process I am support your Chanel 🙏 Have a great day ❤️🔔🔔🔔
do szlifowania polecam wałek o większej średnicy tym co szlifujesz to się środki szlifuje pomyśl o tym i sprawdź będzie lepiej pozdro
Thank you very much! What resin do you use for 3d printing?

I am glad you enjoyed it :). We use various resins, here is resinworks s200
mam jeszcze pytanie jakiego programu do projektowania używasz i jaką maszyną te woski robisz? bardziej ta maszyna mnie interesuje nazwa i model poproszę o odp.

Hi is it necessary to wash and cure before casting in heavy metals

It all depends on the resin. In our experience, the curing of the resin is not the most important thing (but not insignificant). The problem is with the reaction of the resin and the investment. If the investment 'drinks' the resin bad reactions happen. This reaction can be due to poor kiln operation / temperatures - or problems with the resin (e.g. curing). The firing process is the most important thing and a lot depends on what kind of kiln and experience you have. It took us a very long time to perfect this.

R&R plasticast or prestige optima - both are similar and works well
No need to scrap 3D prints off a Wham Bam plate, just a little flex and all the prints will fall off.

With normal resin, yes - but this one is waxy and is extremely brittle. For the first one I did as you wrote i.e. bent the whambam and.... a lot of prints broke :) (and I did it gently). They are so delicate that the prints often break when cutting off the supports and I often have to cut them with a high rotary cutter to not break them.

@@delloropl I see, wonder if extra bottom layers for thicker base would help, and I heard good things with Siraya Tech Cast resin.

The prints stick very hard to the sheet, so I might try experimenting with the settings at my spare time. I haven't used Siraya yet but would like trying it. I'm thinking it would be great to do a big test of different casting resins and compare them with each other. Maybe I'll do one at some point :)
