Week 8 – 03/11/2020

Prototype Print #Draft 2

Approximate price ~$43

Resin Print Estimate

Using the same model, the estimate I received from engineering for 1 print was ~$190. As the amount of layers needed to print greatly increases the cost. However, hollowing out the model would also reduce this cost. I will go about hollowing my test model to see what that price would entail this week (I assume it would reduce it by half, maybe more).

If it’s affordable, I will go ahead with that method of printing. If not, I will stick to my own resin casting process.
