Where the model is fine and is received before the Friday of that week or sooner, we will cast as soon as possible once we have a certain number of items ready for the foundry.
3D printing operates around the clock with our printers, as does the post UV-curing and resin alcohol bath.
The burnout cycles for our kiln takes roughly 11 - 12 hours.
