A quick tool I made the other day to help make those bubble-style helmets popular in retro science fiction and the Jetsons.
The intended use is as follows:
- Spray or brush both halves of the mold with your preferred mold release agent
- Fit the two halves tightly together, and apply an elastic or some such to keep them so
- Pour or inject your resin or other transparent compound into the space through the hole on the one side
Once cured, pull halves apart and remove orb casting The hole should also allow you to place an object in the middle of the mold, if you so dare.
Note: Scale to 125% for a bubble that should tightly fit the space of a 28 mm miniature's head. I encourage you to play around in your slicer or other 3D software to make sure that it will work for your needs.
