Notes:
I just read the instructions on the Polymaker Polycast filiment, and my prints are working fine. The longer you leave out the filiment, the more stringy stuff there is to have to remove (I have noticed). They recommend keeping it sealed when not in use. You probably need to add supports (I did), and I printed the frog face up, which greatly minimized the amount of supports required. The supports are a bit of a pain to remove, but not that bad. I added supports simply using cura (if you know your printer, you will know what is best) and made minor mods from this from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:182144. An excellent model by カエル（Frog）3Dデータ Of course you need to put this in some kind of investment (plaster of paris *might* work, but I used casting investment) when printed. And burn it out (I did over a slow campfire, but a kiln is best). And pour in the metal while the cast is moisture free and hot (I used relatively safe low temperature pewter.
