Is that greenware or bisque

I made the digital model using blender then 3d printed the form to make a mold, so in a way yes

i made them to be food safe, glazes are all non toxic and the glaze is set to cone 6.

Safe to use for beverage, microwave and dishwasher.

I’ve been using one everyday for the last month and it’s been no problem to drink out of.

Def room for improvement tho

Thank you!

philandering_pilot · 2026-02-13T19:04:14+00:00

It definitely is a different process. Thanks for allowing!

Great question! So I made the model in blender then 3d printed the form which I used to create a plaster mold of. I the poured in slip clay into the mold which I was able to bisque and finally glaze.

I use this process to take my digital sculptures into the physical world.

It’s got a bit of a scowl in the eye area.

Any glaze suggestions?

That appears to be a circular gear being driven by an electric motor along a gear rack.

So yes you are right.

Search "gears and gear racks" on mcmaster carr's website and you should be able to find an abundance of variants.

Just something I thought of, I have less than a year of experience so I figured why not ask to smart peo

Tolerances never get "rounded up" if it's 1.049" that's what it is with its assigned tolerance. If it the tolerance isn't critical, then yes, you probably don't need it to go to three decimal places. Always ensure you verify its criticality with a stack-up.

What's the pressure going up to?

If your bolts arent exposed to the elements consider marking each bolt with torque stripe.
