Orion Sounds Correct what you are Suggesting will try it first with Aluminum

I think that best result will be achieved by your suggestion make a mold keep enough on the Mold for Machine finishing and Final Hand Polishing

I will keep you posted with the Final Result

One Other Problem that I have is the Case back , does anybody know what size Threading is used meaning which Tool will make the Threading correct or Any Threading Design that can be used as this surely can not be molded

Stamped from sheet is still "from solid" I.e. Not cast/forged

:drinks:

Stamping or machining something has serious influence on the surface structure and the materials's capabilities, e.g. hardness...

A case machined or casted from 18 gold without any compacting of the case will most probably be too soft for anything.
