Paul,
How do you think you would go with your new found skills in mould making, in doing the bell
housing you had previously designed.
What is the minimum thickness your foundry will accommodate ? you have suggested they will
accommodate fairly thin wall sections for non-injection type moulding.

The big problem with doing a bell housing casting is the pattern
is too large for the 3D machine. I would have to pay big bucks to
have the pattern made. the foundry can do .140 wall and I will soon
have some parts with about that wall thickness.
