This week I experimented wtih three different techniques: vacuum forming, composite making, and embroidery.
Vacuum Forming
Final Product
Working in progress
The process is that I need to place the shape (in my case, the dices) into the area. Then I heat up machine so it will start melt
Process 1
Process 2
I'm not sure what I'll be doing with this technique but maybe making art pieces?
Composite making
I also tried with composite making. The process is very interesting
Final Product
composite machine
This is the process. Saturate fiber layers with epoxy and lay up on mold.
Process 1
Process 2
Then I waited for 24 hours. This is the result post 24 hours. we see the epoxy come out.

Process 2
Embroidery
The last thing I tried is embroidery. I found a PNG online and put it on InkStitch and Inkscape.
I also tried to 3D print on the final product which turned out to be great!
