in most cases the product settles without bubbles in it, and if you use a silicon mold to copy the primary peice, the surface finish is copied perfectly.
its a two part resin that cures within half an hour. comes in all kinds of finishes, densities and implied purposes.
im going to make a chassis using it, just takes a little time to make molds.
for short run stuff like this, pay out for one peice to be machined, then copy with smoothon as many times as you like.
I don't think this method can produce a complex milled MT4 drop down with threaded holes.
MT4 owners would want a commercially produced drop down.
It also sounds very labor intensive. Can the final product from that method be plastic or aluminum?
Besides, we will wait for ONEKIWI report back on his search for customers that want the MT4 drop down, and PINOY RC's list of hundreds on MT4 owners in his Asia region that also want a drop down.
