[Jewelry making - Article 00395] - [Orchid] Geometric Shapes Fabrication

[Mike Edwards]

========[ Invite a Friend - http://www.ganoksin.com/invite.htm  ]========

    I have, for the last several years, been working with geometric,
    crystaline shapes in my designs. Over time, these shapes, have become
    a bit complicated and we've decided to produce some of them in series
    though the use of casting. Unfortunately, we sometimes run into the
    usual casting problems of pits and other nastiness, often late in the
    process. Needless to say, this is frustrating and wasteful of our
    time and resources. 

    We have a hydrolic press in our shop and I'm certain there must be a
    way that this press can help in solving our fabrication problems,
    but I don't know enough about dies to know how. I am would very much
    appreciate if anyone could offer any suggestions or information that
    might help lead me towards a solution. 

Thanks.
