Day 9: (Wed Feb 12, Week 5) 3D Printed Mold Design

Notes for 2025-02-12.

New Assignments

Due Monday: Exercise: Research Study, with results to Exercise 9 Shared Folder. Note: you are welcome to develop your project pitch further or choose a new approach.

Due Monday: please get your mold part(s) printed for Exercise: 3D Printed Mold Design Workshop. See below for submission links. We’ll pour them together as a batch on Monday.

Looking ahead: next week we’ll try 3D-printing a final part directly in TPU.

Administrative

I have created a Mosaic Array 3D Printer submission link for the class: CSR-S25 Mosaic 3D printer submissions.

However, the system is apparently getting unreliable, so I’d also like you to submit final STL files for printing to this Google Drive folder: CSR-S25 3D Print Queue.

Agenda

  1. Review your designs for Exercise: 3D Printed Mold Design Workshop.

  2. Mosaic Array submission walkthrough.

  3. As needed: SolidWorks tutorial.

  4. Discuss new assignment.

  5. Identify potential technical infrastructure needs.

  6. Time permitting: individual consultation on project ideas.
