Hi Ellen,

    Couldn't you make the model in something else and use it to create
    you mold from it such as clay? The king that doesn't harden I think
    it's platicine, I think. Hmm what about sculpy as a matter of fact
    there is an extruder that can make wire shapes like round,
    half-round, square and so on. You could pour investment over your
    model let it dry pull out the model and EUREKA!!! a cavity for your
    wax. 

    Maybe you could pour in say pewter then make a rubber mold from it?
