The first preview...

Update #15 · Jul 22, 2012 · 11 comments

Dear Backers,

We have done a couple of test runs. The result of the first test run was that we needed to add more ejectors (the small pins that pushes the Base out of the mold) than originally planned. This in order not to ruin the tolerances when ejecting the Base.

Now to the fun part: Some photos showing the result of the second test run:

We are quite pleased with this. Apart from some minor ajustments, the only major thing we will improve is that we will add some venting in the corners of the tool in order to get the corners completely as we want them (they are slightly curvy). We are working on this as we speak so hopefully very soon we'll have the tool ready. This fine-tuning takes some time but - as mentioned - the shape is pretty complex. 

Will revert with the results of the 3rd test run asap.

We're getting there...

All the best,

The MinuteBot Team
