I don't understand, does this just inject the plastic into the mold? Where do I get the mold from?

- strongpigeon 1y ago> You can use existing resin molds or 3D print your own.
- stavros 1y agoI missed that, thanks.
- socalgal2 1y agoYou 3d print molds with a separate 3d printer. It feels implied from the video and the pictures and the opening paragraph > If you own a 3D printer, you've got hard plastics covered. . But what if you want to make something soft or squishy, like grip pads or a gadget enclosure?
- jononor 1y agoPrint in TPU? There is a limit to how soft one can get, and the finish is not so great (stringing). But fantastic for very tough semi-soft functional objects. Ninjaflex Cheetah and Armadillo are my favorites, but generic TPU also works. Direct drive extruder recommended, though I manage on my cheapo Bowden fed Ender 3.
