What format is the 3D model you got in? Where'd you get it? I may be able to help if the file is in .3ds or .dxf/.dwg format as I can read these into MicroStation which can, in turn, output all sorts of formats and provide reasonably accurate dimensional information. I'm a so-called expert with this program (written books about the product) and have done some 'interesting' things with non-MicroStation imported data.

Depending on the 'fidelity' of the model I may even be able to generate a .stl format acceptable to stereo lithography service bureaus. From one of these physical prototypes you can easily make plaster molds for generating your resin copies.
