Today was a mix of 3D printing, coding, and finally a family get-together figuring out how silicon gel works.
Who knew you needed a gun to extract the gel out? and that you needed 3 people? or at least, we were all helping out at some point until we realised we were redundant… I guess that is how efficiency comes about.
Above is the end result of Anita leathering a healthy amount of silicon onto the piece… and below, a snapshot of us at work.
In other news, we have also successfully installed the pumps onto the holders!
In the words of Tony,
“Work smart not hard.”
Also Tony: “Please clean the pipes they’re so dirty.” For the longest time we thought he was joking until he actually passed us the alcohol spray…
With that; here are some more B-roll of 3D printing — no matter how ‘lame’ the design is, I always get excited when our print is being made… I think I speak for the rest of the team when I say its mesmerizing to watch how something digital can become physical and tangible with a spool and nozzle… squirting out an intricate pattern layer by layer… into the thing we need.
