What is Wall thickness?

Definition

Wall thickness is the minimum metal thickness required for a jewellery piece to survive casting, polishing and daily wear. Recommended minimums: DMLS metal printing 1–2mm; SLA resin master 0.5mm (0.4mm for detailed jaali); FDM 0.8–1.2mm; lost-wax cast master 0.6–0.8mm. Facetra's CAD kit README ships with this cheatsheet.
