Master models for filling with food grade silicone followed by the creation of chocolate objects.

These charms were created specifically for Monamichocolate (https://vk.com/monamichocolate ), in order to please other buyers of goodies in the future. All models are created in almost the same way as helmets with weapons, except that the approach is different - they are modeled according to customer sketches, according to certain sizes, depths and other important parameters.

Then the print itself. It comes from ABS plastic, with the alignment of the upper layers and subsequent chemical treatment in acetone. Such printed models are made specially already in the form of a finished product, so that later they can be filled with food-grade silicone, because ABS plastic with food is neither-nor dangerous. It is very important here that the printing is of the highest quality, and the modeling is competent - separate modeling of the model with subsequent printing at different speeds. It is not possible to print the entire model at 60mm \ s, because the walls will do well, this is a fact, but small letters and details will not understand such jokes, when, sometimes, in 1-2 seconds you need to make up to 4 retracts and also print a dot on the model and multi-speed printing is done in the settings of the slicer itself.

About processing - everyone has their own secrets, and I have certain tricks in this regard, there is no need to disclose some information😏 But not without nuances that are recognized after the customer receives the model - some things that are just the result of work for you are categorically not suitable for the customer, and you didn't know that.

In my experience, there are already more than 30 models of modeled and printed master models, 5 tablets, and even after such a number of models, new jambs may pop up-nuances of printing or processing, and optimization of printing time. After all, because of the desired print quality, sometimes the printing itself can reach up to 23 hours for only one model, and this is the appropriate price tag. After all, the price tag for modeling is fixed for the most part, but for printing with processing: printing time + consumables.

There was an additional idea to mess around, create your own shapes, make your own cozy little shop on this basis, for which even the logo came up with what was on the last photo (and yes, the model was made even before the "first optimization", when there was underextrusion of plastic on the top layer. This is just an example of when I haven't found the print function with different speeds yet)... But investing your time in something that may not help you financially in any way and will not be relevant to the rest is an idea to think very hard. Write your thoughts on this in the comments, it will be interesting to discuss😌
