Belt Plaque

thingiverse

I created a unique medieval plaque belt design using Sketchup and printed it with a Rep2 at 0.1mm layer thickness, 100% resolution, and one shell. To make the plaques, I crafted a rubber mold from the print using Smooth-on Mold Max 60 (high temp molding rubber) and cast multiple pewter plaques using this mold. If there's interest, I can provide more details on pewter casting from 3D prints, but Instructables.com offers valuable resources for this process. Combining 3D CAD, 3D printing, rubber molding, and pewter casting allows me to produce high-quality art despite my limited drawing abilities.
