    Im going to throw a bit of a curve ball here but if you make the item in cad then using a wax model cast it saves lots of time I have found when setting repetative items just my 10 pence worth wondering what your opinion was ?

    That is definitely part of it - but there's also the issue that I feel it is important (to me anyway) to be able to do these things from first principles beore looking for ways that may be more time efficient.
