8. Moulding and casting¶
Group assignment¶
I take Gypsum material
- For Safety Avoid: “Excessive Inhaling, Ingestion, Eye contact”
- Processes & Time It needs to be garnered into water ( Not vice versa) in a clean bucket. Then Mix approximately 4L of cool, clear water and 5kg Made plaster together. After that Stop adding once the powder is exceeding the water level. After 1 minutes of soaking. properly mix by hand or mixer.
- Ratio 4:5 “4L water, 5kg gypsum”
Here is a summary of the steps I followed:
- Initially, I poured 8 grams of water into a container.
- In a separate container, I added 10 grams of gypsum powder.
- Next, I poured the water from the first container into the container with the gypsum powder.
- Finally, I poured the mixture into a silicon mold and allowed it to cure.
- By following these steps, you have successfully created a mixture of gypsum and water, which was then poured into a mold to undergo the curing process.

To be honest, I am a One Piece fan, but Naruto’s abundance of Japanese art greatly appeals to me. I love it and draw a lot of inspiration from it.
*for sure it will be on Inventor ;)*
Milling¶
Then we convert them to SPR player which can help us to use monoFab Machine

Molding¶
Safety Information: - Wear Gloves - Use Tissues when needed - Keep Distance - Wear Apron
Materials
- Silicon A (used with Silicon B with ratio 1:1 to create mold)
- Silicon B (used with Silicon A with ratio 1:1 to create mold)
- Milled Wax (Previous Step)
- Plastic Cups (to add silicon into)
- Plastic Spoons (to transport silicon)
- Tissues (to clean excess materials)
- Small Weighing Scale (to weight materials)
Ratio & Mixture
- On Milled Wax with 1 A to 1 B Ratio (silicon material since it was the available one).
- 62.7g A and 62.7g B Material.
- results take time in 9 hours approximately
Steps
- Add Silicon A to glass
- Add Silicon B to another glass
- have same weight at both
- Add Them in one glass
- Mix them well for about 2 minutes.

Casting¶
Safety Information:
- Wear Gloves
- Use Tissues when needed
- Keep Distance
- Wear Apron
Materials
Resin and Hardener were used as they provide a colorless result which can be colored and are more rigid than the materials used at the group task
Ratio & Mixture
- 10g resin to 6g hardener ratio
Steps
- Add 10g of Resin in Cup
- add 6g of Hardener in Cup
- Add to the Molding Result to start Casting
- Wait until it solidifies.
result
full cure time approximately 36 hours.
