Cast-in-place parts #11

Open jes opened 4 years ago

It's not inconceivable that we could produce cast versions of "print-in-place" parts by designing a sprue structure that holds the parts still without touching each other, then casting it, then cutting the sprue off.

Tried this in #13 but it didn't work. I don't see why it couldn't work, but I don't yet know how to do casting well enough.
