The TM Resin Saver (unless someone can think of a better more catchy name) has entered its prototyping stage.

I have been working on a drawing which I put on the school 3D printer today.

This is on its lowest quality settings and is a mock up of the mould for the silicon mould, Mould so to speak.

I will be hopefully printing a full scale one tomorrow and I will post photos of the results.

The 3d Printer is brilliant. On the highest setting it will take 23 hour to print but the results are amazing. I am hoping to be able to use the final printing as my mould mould.

I'm guessing you can save quite a bit not paying someone to do the R&D on this Dan :thumbs: Are you going to make the type with separate plugs or integrated plugs?

That could work well as a cottage industry, with lots of sidelines too, resin etc.
