[QUOTE="Mike2, post: 326831, member: 943"] Wow, looks like I need to offer milling services. I had a issue with them not having metal in stock, so I decided to let them make it. They said same crap, check your file etc. I told them that I thought that the bdg was made with SLM, only to find they were milling a wax pattern and casting. I mentioned unless their casting department had 40+ yrs., not sure how it would be better. My guy has done this since late 70's, and we ended up haveing to cast ourselves as 2 bdgs' they sent weren't close(6unit 6-11) The 2nd one looked like wax was dropped inside pattern, one unit fit other not close. I guess I would have to run a large operation, but remakes are not acceptable in this digital age. My 2 cents [/QUOTE]
