Not sure if everyone is aware there is a filament material called PolyCast. so you can do a design export it to a printer. print then send to the foundry. This will massively speed up pro typing.
My problem
I have Alibre Design V22,
The 3D software I use is Ideamaker,
When I export the below file to STL I some times can get it into the IdeaMaker software but it is so large the software crashes, (500 meg). I have trried the suggested setting in a different thread and it didn't work. I only can assume the issue is the Lofting.
Given that we were planing on doing Engine blocks etc this way I hope you guys can offer some advise.
