Question here. Is it possible to get a printer that prints in a medium that can be used in a foundry? Basically, what I want to do is to print an object in something like wax and then cast it. I don’t want a metal printer.

PLA burns out cleanly and can be used for lost-wax or investment casting.

Pretty much all printers have the ability to print PLA.

Awesome, that was quick. Thanks! Trying to get my father, a sculptor/foundry guy, into some new domains right now.

Thanks @ThantiK , that’s a good bit of pocket knowledge to have on hand!
