screw casting it, Mill it out from a solid billet.
casting is not easy to do, and is very delicate process. Impurities, the rate at which it cools and such begins to be a headache.
It becomes a bigger headache when your part goes boing! and you are left wondering if you fucked up because you went through the wrong parts of the phase diagrams or you got an impiruty in the sample.
CNC milling is the way to go if you are doing small scale runs.
