Hi guys, as a trusty companion to the ever fabulous fabrik... I was tasked with creating a mold for the Multipass.
Given the design of this model is simplistic to a certain degree, I opted for a 2 part silicone flood mold. Because there is a pretty severe undercut where the ID Card would sit, I felt adding some silicone oil to the mix would lower the viscosity enough to allow the silicone to level out under the undercut without a devastating air bubble being caught in it.
As luck would have it, it captured it all near perfectly.
I've included an image of the first pull from the mold, which if I'm honest, I'm not completely happy with because I clamped the mold closed a little too much and caused the 'middle plate' to touch and caused a void in the cast.
This is still a work in progress for the casting part of the project, but as I'm going to be running a few of these would anyone be interested in buying a cast of this? As I said earlier, I work with fabrik and this is in no way a recasting scenario... It'd be pretty dumb to sell a recast on the original thread!
Would love to hear your thoughts guys.
