kind of remind me of a pistol slide at 0:27... but yeah this isnt 3d printing, it is molding... and I haven't watch the whole video but I don't think they show you how they make the mold.


They insert a probe deeply into glass beads to deliver hot metal liquid as the probe moves along the programmed path.

That part that looks like molding is for to show how the metal liquid will cool down inside the such beads.

(You should have watched the whole video)


at first I thought it was a tool designed to 3D print casting molds... it isn't, it's just a nozzle creating a casting profile by direct injection underneath what amounts to fine sand.
