PLA Sacrificial-Mold for Queen relief section

This is a PLA 3D print used as a sacrificial mold for casting plaster, based on a relief fragment depicting a royal female figure from the 19th Dynasty, identified as a daughter or wife of Ramesses II, likely originating from a larger work now in Cairo (possibly the Egyptian Museum).

The source 3D model was taken from MyMiniFactory:

This mold is designed to be broken after casting in order to release the plaster positive.

Notes & Recommendations:

• Print with very light infill and minimal material overall. A thin back face makes the mold easier to break and allows slight flexing during release.
• Oil the mold thoroughly before pouring the plaster to reduce adhesion.
•  A heat gun can be used carefully to soften the PLA, which dramatically eases demolding and controlled breakage.
