Further casts in Jesmonite
More casting for the Space Rocks. Silicone moulds with Jesmonite and added white pigment, and then some slush casting.
Space Rocks – first casts
A series of photos showing the first attempts at casting the Space Rocks in Jesmonite, along with some further 3D printed parts to hold the circuitry and electronics.
The four Space Rock shapes
The final four Space Rock shapes.
Audio amplifier
I have four M386 Super MINI Amplifier Boards. Just need to assemble them now…
Taking shape
The latest version of Space Rock #4, sanded and with the circuit board and powerbank holder printed for inside. Also shown is a version of Space Rock #1 printed in sections at 280mm wide, and coated with XTC 3D as a test as this print has lots of flaws – not least because the filament snapped just before finishing printing the front section, so I had to do a patch repair. Interesting to see how smooth this sands down.
Mini-Me
Testing a 3D print of my face using the online 3D Face Reconstruction from a Single Image tool.
Refining the Space Rock shapes
First refined version of shape 4. The outer shell has been sanded ready to be cast (as a test). And some test prints in PLA of the inner part that holds the power bank and circuit board. The first version of this is not deep enough and the screw holes are a little too close to the edge of the print.
Glow-in-the-dark Space Rocks
Small (45mm) 3D printed Space Rocks, that glow in the dark.
Could the Space Rocks breathe?
Looking at ways to make the Space Rock shapes less rigid / more flexible.
