Video tutorial series: Designing, printing and casting jewellery

Teaching_Tech

This is a beginner friendly series that my students will be following this year. Previously, we used to carve the rings out of wax before sending them off to be investment cast. Now, everything will be designed sing Onshape, before a Wanhao Duplicator 7 produces patterns with Bluecast resin. The patterns will be sent to a local casting company to produce silver rings.

I'll keep everything here to avoid clutter.
