Hardening the 3D Rapid Prototype

Once the models had been baked and dried slowly in the oven, they had to be hardened with a fixing agent.


The thicker concert shell was fine just apply 1 layer of the glue to (making sure not to go over any area twice or else it smudged). However, considering the web model was a lot finer, it had to be firstly drenched in glue hardener, quickly dried with the cool air gun, then resprayed with a sea salt water base mix to make it more rigid.
