can you do do bakeware silicone? or is that the same as the FDA safe silicone?

I'm trying to build a vessel out of silicone in your cad program and I can't seem to figure out how, is it possible to build something like a vase or waterbottle out of silicone with your fabrication process? It seems like I might be out of luck.

You can model shapes like a vase - please see Revolve.

You can order special materials - please see Special Materials.

can you take a look at my design and help me figure out a way to get a quote on it?

The system does not accept rubber as a material for such a shape. eMachineShop would not be able to make such a part out of rubber.

Finding a machine shop to make the parts I need has been a big obstacle to my inventive efforts because the parts are often small and I don't need large quantities of them.
