Description

We 3D printed this model, finished it to remove all striation marks from the 3D printing, then used this \master\ to cast silicone molds.  From the silicone molds, we cast these frames in urethane plastic.  There is a one hour cure time for the plastic.  So with six molds we should be able to make about 6 masks per hour.
