33 forum posts 5 photos	Does anyone know of a investment casting company who will do small batches ? I only want 10 pieces made, i have even made the wax blanks, they just want casting into alloy. I spent all yesterday evening on the internet trawling around, but there seems to be only large companies who cast by the thousands, and most probably would not be interested in doing just 10 pieces. dave

159 forum posts 18 photos	I have used Richard Sheard at Plataurum in the West Midlands for a lot of loco stuff. Excellent quality and good value. May not be the cheapest if cost is your main criteria. LINK Hope this helps. Brian

This company expects people to supply waxes and charges by the gram, which suggests they do small runs! They also say the love a challenge! justcastings.co.uk/what-we-do/casting/ If you do use them (or another company) why not do a little write up for MEW? Neil
