[QUOTE="Affinity, post: 133702, member: 1246"] cascom is a good machine, but dont pay more than 4-5k for a used one. I had one for several years and the castings are nice and dense, but doesnt mean you never miscast. you still have to sprue right, weigh wax.. etc. Great for gold crowns, no porosity. Great for big bridges with one sprue. The cost is not justified anymore unless you are casting dozens a day in a production lab. you can get a used centrifuge for under $500 and start making money.. Think about the time it would take to pay off even a used cascom or fornax... years and years.. theres no money in metal.. buy a scanner and let bego cast for you in their machines... [/QUOTE]
