Very first FZC on a mini.

[Bumfrey]

Zenostar, zz presinter stains and emax stain and glaze. Zfx (medit) scanner and basic CAM with a mini.
Will be getting advance CAM at a later date, as i am not able to use 0.6mm drill bit for detail at the moment as far as i am aware. Still learning.
Limited occlusal space.



First time i have posted photos.
First time i have posted my work.
First time i have done a FCZ totally in-lab.

Please be kind.

A big thanks to all who have helped especially John Wilson who inspired me to go for it. If i make good money he will be gettin some whisky for sure.

Love criticism as long as its constructive.

O and i use a camera on my phone. First one is a bit blurry soz.

The photo turned that D3 into a blue/green opal. Weird.

Really? looked ok on my screen.
Noted. First proper use of the pre sinter grey / violet stains. That might be it.

2nd edit. I am really not seeing the blue/green...... I'm looking but not seeing it. Although its been a long day and my eyes are v tired.

Are you using ZZ acid stains or Aquarell? What was your final sintering temp? Thanks Tad

Looks good on my 32" screen.. I think Marcus is jealously blue/green over the Mini mill lol

Water based stains. 1450C.

Shade looks good for the first try in my eyes. Not perfect but good.

Looks fine to me, way to go Bumfrey!

Glad your rocking, what made you go with the ZZ stains over the weiland?

I had my ceramist come look, she sees a crazy blue/green too. Everything seems fine on the monitor. Hum......
Anyway, the D3 tab is a crazy blue/green too, so the color matches.

They were available. Ivoclar is still waiting for delivery of a lot of materials. When they get them i will try them. Although i like the thought of water based over acid based. Safety and furnace durability (elements).

Looking on my laptop now in a darker room and yes maybe a little. It must be my camera phone, as its good irl. Thanks for input though.

Would the water based stains eliminate the yellowing ofZr?
