    I had no idea how much went into casting design from start to finish. Thank you for this video!

    Why not do it in one section of foam? is it just the Z limit of your particular router or the clearance of the tool head into the plunge region?

    I am guessing that 3D printing will significantly simplify the process of making the mould?

    • @KerpwndKat
      @KerpwndKat 10 років тому +2

      3D printing that mold would take days with current tech.

    • @Allottedaaron
      @Allottedaaron 10 років тому

      Isn't that the point though, that current tech becomes old tech very quickly these days and something faster is always around the corner.

      As amazing as the media makes 3D printing sound, it isn't ideal for all applications. Subtractive processes are still usually the way to go. A 3D printed mold would probably be too stiff to properly demold the casting.

    Hi, can you please explain the process after the foam segments were assembled together to the moment before paint is applied. What material/technique was used to make the 3D object as a whole? Thanks

    Is there a reason why the plastipaste is mixed by hand rather than with a mixing bit? Is it too dense ?

    • @smoothon
      @smoothon  7 років тому +1

      Yes, it is difficult to mix with a drill mixer, it would require a high-torque drill and bit.

    Found a great way to accurately and easily measure a stiff component and a liquid component. Place the liquid in a measuring container to the correct amount. (larger than needed for both components) Then add the stiff component till the liquid comes up to a line calculated for the correct level for both components. As long and the stiff component doesn't stick up above the liquid, it's accurate. Quicker and more accurate (no trapped air) than trying to measure the volume of the stiff component alone.

    Hi everybody.I'm trying to cast kitchen sink made of 30% of polyester resin and 70% of colored quarz aggregate (diam.0,2-0,8mm). But during polymerization/biding the kitchens crack centrally from siphon. I pour in the mixture to the mould throug the hole around the siphon. When I pumped the mixture into the mould by the feeder through the hole with diam. 6cm , it was ok, and the composition of mixture was the same. Where is the problem?

    So, how is this better than carving the Styrofoam shell, applying fiberglass reinforced concrete on it in a melamine form? This seems like waaaaay too many steps to get the same results.

    Smooth...I have a technology that could greatly decrease the cost and labor of doing any sink like this. Think casting a sink every 10 min with one mold we are producing 5-6 sinks per hour they weigh 32 lbs for a 31 inch sink. And our cost, labor and materials is 34.00. This is a solid surface technology that uses quartz and special resins...NOT acrylic! We currently sell 300 per day with 5 different colors. GFRC can not even come close to the look..think cambria, or the low cost to produce. Just a thought for you...

    Wow, gotta be the most overly convoluted mold process I have seen. All you need to do is brush silicone over the original piece, back that with a thick layer of plasti paste, cut in half (sink edge horizontally) doesn't have to be perfect as the final piece will be worked anyway. Remove piece. Spray on the demolder, clamp shell and pour in your material. Turn couple times. Simple.

    You should make a video about using your high viscosity products for casting model train bodies in resin, you can use one of my 3d print models from Shapways if you are concerned about royalties. if you are interested I can send you a link. The model I have in mind fits on a readily available motorized chassis so at the end of the video you can show it run.

    @aefaefaaefawfawfawf3784 10 років тому

    why not make it simpler and just make a wooden box and fill it with silicon mold? i mean i understand that to save materials, they use the clay as spacing and then make a plaster case... but does all those extra steps/materials justify the ease/simplicity of using only silicon?

    • @ge2719
      @ge2719 10 років тому

      Exactly, it wad a lot of wmessing around to get those two supports that didnt even fit together well and so will cost a whole bunch of hot glue every time.
      They could have even used the cnc to cut out wood to make a perfect support that would have held together with straps

      Well you clear don't understand the use of a rubber mold and mass production of items..
      They don't have just 1 mold.
      And in 4 hours they have 1 zinc or what ever else they forms they made..
      They would not put so much effort into this kind of thing if it did not make them money.
      And it not that heavy, it fairly thin material..
