Recycled Cardboard Molding

Description

**YouTube Video:** https://youtu.be/0ItPfhx3ulw **Instructables:** https://www.instructables.com/id/Recycle-Cardboard-Into-Anything-With-3D-Printing/ Paper is an incredible material, but why does it always have to be flat? I’ve developed a process to turn paper into a three-dimensional object, using as little as a 3D printer, a blender, a vice, and pinch of rice. To mold paper or cardboard into a 3D molded-pulp object, the paper needs to be blended into a wet pulp with a water-soluble binder, then compacted into a 3D printed press mold. **There are 7 different mold designs available for download here:** 1. 60mm Coaster (coasterMold1/2.STL) 2. Cube (cube_base/frame/press.STL) 3. Triangulated Surface (Mesh_base/frame/press.STL) 4. Sinusoidal Surface (Box_base/Box_frame/Box_Sine_press.STL) 5. Mt. San Antonio Topographic Map (Box_base/Box_frame/Box_terrain_press.STL) 6. Dish (Dish_Base/Wall/Press.STL) 7. Tray (Tray_Base/Wall/Press.STL) Each mold has three parts(except for the coaster): a base, a wall/frame, and the pressing tool.
