Related to that, I saw when Rusty posted about it that the B9 creator is being used for casting of metal jewellery with fine detail that might even be down to the level of pipe threads like those. Which makes me interested in this on general metal-printing principle as well. Quoted max XY resolution 50 microns, Z 6.xx, looks subjectively like that transfers to the metal in the ring photo. Anyone want to split the cost of acquiring one of these and doing metal casting?
