Hi Dave,

Jay Fontanella, a member of the AFCA, mentioned that you made some really good wax molds for the kidney housing and pointer when you were producing them. He also said he thought that you gave them to someone that was going to try and make some more. I have been speaking with Tim Marks about the possibility of making them again and was wondering if the person that you gave the wax molds to would be willing to let Tim Marks use them.

Any help would be greatly Appreciated by all of us Kidney FANS!

Thank You,

Dean

Dean-

I appreciate your enthusiasm but I can't say that I'm the right person to receive a wax mold for the positive. If I pursued reproducing the kidney I would model the part in CAD, this would allow me to easily scale it up 1.5%. I'd then print the positive and provide that printed part to a foundry. 

But timing is not great for me. I have a little girl due to arrive literally any day now and lots of more pressing issues going on at work. I do have a complete kidney gear box in my parts collection, I just need to degrease it so that I can start modeling it.
