Description
Introduction 🛠 I designed molds for Easter eggs with charming motifs such as a rabbit, sheep, chick, and flower, as well as smooth, plain versions without motifs. These molds are perfect for making decorative Easter eggs or candles. Usage Options 💡 Plaster and other casts – ideal for decorations or creative projects; the wick hole can be easily sealed with plasticine. Wax casts – great for making your own decorative Easter candles. Materials and Printing Recommendations 🖨 For wax, I recommend ASA I used ASA with 3 perimeters to make the mold more heat resistant and shape-retentive. For plaster, PLA is sufficient Plaster is easy to work with, so regular PLA works fine. Sealing the mold To prevent leaks and keep the mold tightly closed, I found wrapping it with tape effective. Variable layer height I used variable layer height to achieve a better surface on the mold. Mold adjustments I did not surface-treat the molds. I used ordinary plaster and wax from a cemetery candle bought at Kaufland — it worked surprisingly well. My Casting Experience 🧪 I have almost no experience with casting, so this project is ideal even for complete beginners. Just pour the material, let it harden, and carefully remove it. If you have tips on improving casting, I'd love to read them in the comments.
