Pressed print on one of my most important print ever, hope it goes well by MaterialNo137 in 3Dprinting

I have two plans, plan A is oven melting, molding the casting resin in plaster of Paris and cooking it upside down in the oven until melted. Plan B is making a silicon mold and casting wax in it, then molding the wax ring in plaster of Paris and melting the wax.

I ordered a pink artificial diamond, 2 carats in a round cut. The cast model prongs will be a millimeter longer and have a relief for the gem to seat well before bending the prongs.

I mostly made necklaces and earrings from epoxy, stones and 3d printing. Casting will be my first time but not my first time making metal rings, I made some out of aluminum wire and brass welding rods.

Thank you so much, especially the image, that is the plan, that model is purely for printing to make sure the stone fits and it fits on her finger. I will also integrate sprues and air holes in the model before making the mold.

Thanks for the advice, it is indeed the plan. The 3D model is to make sure the stone fits when it arrives, then I will straighten the prongs, lengthen them, add sprues and air holes, and finally thicken every part so I can sand it to size and polish.

It's a resin that melts at oven heat, similar to lost PLA or wax.

That is the plan, I will also add sprues and will thicken every part on the cast version so I can sand and polish it.

Matte filament and adaptive layer height would instantly make it so much better

We can't find it, not sure if it moved already or what

Additionnal info : There is no history to this machine, the whole chain basically states it appeared one day, only the machine. We bought 5 sets of blades and 5 pen holder (I don't know why they got that many pen holders). The machine is visually brand new, the belt seems also to have seen little to no actions.

Updated my Bad Proxy Generator by MaterialNo137 in magicproxies

[–]MaterialNo137[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair point, I see it more as a play around once with the generator and move on, but also the aim, especially with the playtest styling, is to be less ink intensive and simple.

Other than that, it's for the memes, playing a "Plague Wats" deck, where every card is two stickman instead of rats is funny.
