 bobsmith-dpi | Not really. It just needs to be stiff. Ten bucks buys our way out of having to build one from smaller components. | 22:03:30 |

| bobsmith-dpi | OK, it would be cheaper and look nicer. The enclosure has to be air tight which might be difficult with side panels we assemble ourselves. I've had good luck with rubber cement for that. | 22:06:16 |

| bobsmith-dpi | It will sound tinny and soft if not air tight. It it is not stiff it will attenuate the higher frequencies a lot. And here I am using the very scientific term "a lot". | 22:11:55 |

 swedishhat | danielle.wis: there's a guy at OLogic who knows a ton about it | 20:51:33 |
| swedishhat | he designs molds pretty regularly | 20:51:44 |
| swedishhat | you tryna do some plastic production runs? | 20:52:15 |

| swedishhat | the mold itself would be $1500 to $2500 | 20:54:51 |
| swedishhat | Zack says vaccuum casting could be a better option | 20:55:44 |

| swedishhat | According to Zack: "you need tapered bits and ball end bits, which generally aren't available on standard Tormachs" | 20:57:29 |
| swedishhat | He says "To get the most bang for your buck (with $500), design a 2-part tool with a core and a cavity and then have it SLA 3D printed (ultra high definition). Then vaccuum cast with that 3D printed mold" | 20:59:25 |
