Week 10

Molding and Casting

Viscosity, Dust and Masks

1. A better alternative to 3D printing on a larger scale with higher precision.

2. You would realize how ratios can mess up the final casting product as well as the mixture itself.

3. This week gave me around 4 days to finish the assignment as I had to finish my Shopbot assignment.


Molding

Brief overview and some homework

I carried on the with the work I did in Week 8. I had created a small sample of perlin noise in 3D on a wooden block using a V-end mill. I also casted epoxy resin in a ratio of 55:45 on that sample and the results were really good. It took around 7 hours for epoxy resin to solidify.
