Casting Car Emblems from 3d printer to METAL casting / vehicle restoration - Lost PLA Method

Reproducing vehicle emblems is commonplace in car restoration, particularly antique emblems. It's usually done by Lost Wax Casting. Here I show how a car emblem can be made at home on a 3D printer and then cast into metal, using the Lost PLA Casting method. For demonstration purposes, I used a few examples of auto emblems I found at Thingiverse.com as well a making a couple myself using Fusion 360. This allows the car badges to be scaled to fit individual vehicles. After that it's just a simple matter of casting to bronze. Now bronze might not seem to be the right colour choice, but it's an ideal, non-corrosive material that can be chrome plated. So if you can't find that car vehicle emblem you need for your car restoration project, consider 3d printing your own : ) 🔹 SUNLU FINAMENT ON AMAZON 🔹 This is the filament I use for _Lost PLA Casting_.
