3D Machining
In this section, I will show how 3D machining can create complex parts with curved geometry
Silicon (Hardener)
This is the brand of silicon I will be using for molding
Silicon Part A
Both Part A & B combine in a 1:1 ratio
Material Safety Data Sheet
.
Resin
These are the specifications of the various epoxy resins
Instructions
These are the mixing and handling instructions
Safety Precautions
Here, safety precautions for handling the epoxy resin can be found
Silicon Pouring
The silicone is poured into the corner so that htere would not be any trapped air bubbles on the surface of the model
Silicon Curing
The datasheet has indicated 24hs for a full cure
Cured Silicon Mold
The silicone mold has set after 24 hours
Demolding
The foam is broken off and peeled away
Low-poly Heart (Mold)
The mold turned out good
Resin Casting Preparation
.
Materials
I used alcohol Ink, blue and red foils, mica powder and resin
Precision Scale
I used a very precise scale (+0.01) to measure a ratio of 3:1 resin and hardener
Red-tinted resin
I've added a drop of red alcohol ink, some red foils and white mica powder
Blue-tinted resin
I've added a drop of blue and black alcohol ink, some blue foils and blue mica powder
Segregated Pour
I intend to create a distinct contrast of color by pouring the resins at extreme ends of the mold
Resin Curing
The design turned out decent

Guitar Pick Mold
I have some leftover resin and decided to make some guitar picks with it
Patience....
Looks Good 🌌
Result
looks good
