    Im ready to buy a rapid prototyping 3d printer.

    I need to print models to cast directly in silver and gold with
    diamonds and signity stones. I need to print high resolution models
    to make rubbers for high production in silver and gold. I want to
    print my logo inside the rings because I dont want to spend in a
    laser for marking. 

    If I need to make a 30 pieces batch to cast directly with signity
    stones or diamonds? or If I need to make a super hi res model with
    100 stones to make a rubber for 100 pieces batches? 

    Should I buy a Perfactory or T66 bt2 or DigitalWax 010?

    I have read a lot about T66 and Perfactory, but seems that nobody
    want to say which one is the best. If the perfactory can print 40
    rings in 9 hours and I can burn easy the resin..... is the winner??
    If the T66 can print 10 models in 24 hours with higher resolution and
    can be burnout better...... is the winner? T66 wax with diamonds vs
    Perfactory resin with diamonds? can the both be cast with the same
    results?

    About true resolution.....If I want to make 1 perfect model with 100
    stones to make a rubber mould.Which one have better quality? If I
    print a perfect sphere which one will print the model with less
    lines? 

    The Digital wax maybe is not a good option because theres not so
    much information about it..... that simple! 

    MJSA made a comparation between both equipments, but they do a
    Platinum casting without stones. What about complicated desings
    casted directly in 18K, 14K or 10K with stones or diamonds using
    normal investiment powder?

    Direct questions for direct answers. 

Thanks.
