I printed the 10mm socket twice, and stuck them together with a soldering iron, with the idea that the "top" one is a head of extra material that the "bottom" one can draw from to get 100% solid.
I printed both sockets oversize by 10% in x/y plane and 6% in z.
I didn't measure the final mass of the 2 combined sockets. Initial mass was 13.4g of the 2 combined (6.7g each), and the final mass of the "good" socket was 6.3g. It still was like 50% hollow, however.
Possibly using a socket for header material doesn't work very well because it has a high surface-area-to-volume ratio, and the bronze seems to stick to the walls of the plaster. Perhaps try an inverted funnel shape next time?
