    3d printing engineer here, just wanted to say that i loved the video! And maybe also to point out that you (hypothetical "you", as a hobbyist, not as a full-blown composites professional) could pay a lot more attention to printing to make the mould almost perfectly smooth. With proper design and a good thick 0.8mm nozzle most of such shapes can be printed in a vase mode, say, at 0.04mm layer height, and then smoothed with a bit of dcm or elbow greace. Or sprayed with some coating to hide layer lines completely. Or dcm-smoothed and then coated. Or acetone-smoothed (if using abs) and then coated. Or... you know, the list of things that can make a perfect mould is kind of infinite

    • @easycompositestv
      @easycompositestv  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Thanks for the comments and suggestions. In our other 3D printing tutorial we did demonstrate using an epoxy coating and the finishing to a near perfect finish; if you’re making more than one part using the mould then this is worth doing. For a one off, it’s often easier to do the finishing work on the part (because it’s in the positive shape).

    This is the perfect type of content. I wouldn't be interested in vacuum sealing for 1 single one-off part usually, but now I see the process and why you'd consider it. So now I would likely actually do the vacuum sealing process. But it's really cool to know this can be done with 3D printed molds and turn out well either way.

    Super nice that you did a tutorial on this stuff.
    I have been experimenting A LOT with 3D printed parts and 3D printed moulds / mould masters up to 1.35m to make CF watersport structures.
    One thing I found on the way is that PU epoxy primer (sold at HP-text....), is a superb primer to stick something to PETG. You only need like 50gr to coat the surface on a meter long part, but after that you can laminate glass or CF to the 3D printed structure without issues. You can't pull it off anymore. Maybe Easy Composites has a similair product. :)
    Another thing is printing very low infill single shelled 3D printed PETG moulds, with the infill arranged as long channels (1 infill angle) and filling them up with e.g. epoxy foam.

    Another excellent tutorial with two really small details that I feel are often missed and help to demystify working with resin: cleaning the shears (I assume you just throw the brushes as they're relatively cheap) and showing the drips after it had cured (i.e. not worrying that they're there)

    • @easycompositestv
      @easycompositestv  3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Brushes can sometimes be reused if you clean them in acetone before the resin gels. However it needs to be a good quality brush as some of the cheaper ones, the glue holding the bristles dissolves with acetone so it falls apart.

    I've been doing quiet a bit of this lately, almost always vacuum bagging. I've found that with pla and a .4mm nozzle that 3 perimeters (1.2mm wall for cura users) and 15% infill makes a mold that can withstand full vacuum. I've had this luck with both pva and mold release wax for getting parts of of the mold, with wax generally giving an easier release.

    • @GhostRyderFPV
      @GhostRyderFPV 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Surprised by your result! I would have thought infill density would have had to be much higher, glad you saved me a few passes. I was also curious if the resin curing process, and the heat, would be high enough to deform PLA, so I picked up clear PETG to mold with, and see any voids. But now I can save that and use PLA instead, and save the stringing for another project. Thank you Nate, I'm looking forward to my first layup!

      @@GhostRyderFPV Glad to hear its helpful info. I imagine that exotherm could still be an issue for warping the PLA if you pushed it too far but I've had great success with epoxy. I've also found that for one offs it's just as easy to sand the layer lines off the finished part opposed to trying to sand the female mold before laminating. If you're going to pop more then a few out of the mold it's probably worth the time to sand the mold. I haven't pushed any of the molds to failure but i have a few that I've made 4 or 5 parts out of that seem to be in fine shape.

    Interesting to see you using the mould straight from the printer. might want to give that a try.
    I've made a number of 3D printed moulds for wet lay-up of glass and carbon parts and I've always coated the mould surface with a Motip filler-primer layer from a spraycan, then sanded the surface to some 400 grit (tho it is possible to go to 2000 grit and polish the mould) untill the peaks of the printlines were visible and sanded smooth but the valleys were filled. It required much less post processing since the surface was already smooth. This is especially important with carbon fiber as you need to be very cautious of the tiny fibers you're sanding off, tho wetsanding really helps.
    Also, I've always liked to use 8mm wooden dowels and holes in the moulds to perfectly mate the mould sections for larger moulds that need to be glued together.

      Thanks for your feedback and tips, that’s all good to hear and share. We’re generally a bit wary of rattle-can primers because the release off them can be a bit hit-and-miss (generally more miss, the amount of calls for help we get from customers who have used them!) so you might want to experiment with a product like XCR, it’s really an excellent way of coating prints 👍.

    I use the Formlabs Form 3 with the Grey Pro resin. Very little post processing needed to get amazing finishes...

    Poly vinyl alcohol is a brilliant release agent, best way to apply it is with a small spray gun or even airbrush as the less PLA the better.

    Great video as always! Are you planning, or have some references as how to treat aluminium molds for vacuum bagging, when the surface is porous, or how to apply and which release agents to use?
    Cheers

      You would use the S120 as featured in a previous video.

    What sort of dust extraction/management do you recommend when grinding/Dremmeling the flash off? I heard from some guys that I know who are ex-Lola, (now RB or Mercedes guys), that CF grinding dust is particularly dodgy (inhaling any dust/solvents to some extent obvs) Also just to say....really, and I mean really, good instructional videos, honest and straight to the point. hopefully will bring you a lot of hobbyist business.

      We use a downdraft table in a ventilated cutting room. However dust extraction arms etc also work well. You still need PPE on top of any extraction.

    Good evening, great video as always. I am very interested in the 3d files from the Drone Shell you did in the Last video. The finished Drone in the backround Looks amazing

      I’m sure we could get those added to the project page on our website for download. It was just something Paul put together for the tutorial... I’ll have a word!

    Another excellent video. And I can almost make out the CF drone cover in the background from the previous video.

    • @easycompositestv
      @easycompositestv  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yup, that’s the drone shell we made in the previous video; if you’ve not seen it, check it out.
