Metal parts from 3D prints - Three methods to go from plastic to metallic
Learn about three different methods of casting metal parts from 3d prints including:
* Custom pewter rings from high temp silicone molds
* Sand casting a zinc Mjolnir hammer
* Lost PLA casting zinc into a complex R2D2 part
Originally from the North Country and then other parts of NY, I eventually came to Rochester to work for RIT as an IT manager. Being a nerd around nerds all day likely made 3D printing an inevitable interest, and things just grew from there. The journey of learning to make using different methods and tools is my personal joy, be it digital design & 3d printing, casting, leatherworking, blacksmithing, hobby CNC, and who know what's next.
