Step 1: Making the Mold

3D Printing the Mold

For 3D printing the mold, we used Form2 of Formlabs with Clear Resin.

Software for Form 2

The software that we used was PreForm. In order to print in a short time, the orientation of the mold needs to be adjusted so that it sticks directly to the top of the printer without being supported by scaffolds.

Rinsing the mold

After the 3D printing process is finished, take out the material and rinse it in ethanol.
