The site says the form is made of hexagonal pins bound together. The tips have the cube corners cut on them. Apparently the pins fit together tight enough they can be used as-is in a mold insert. The electroforms look to be quite thick, plenty thick enough to withstand having a lower melting temperature alloy cast against their back sides in a block that can be machined to make a mold insert. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Precog is a next-generation analytics platform capable of advanced analytics on semi-structured data.
