Adding Weight to a 3D Print With Plaster of Paris, Cleanly
A 3D printing technique uses plaster of Paris to add weight to printed objects by filling a hollow cavity in the base after printing. This method avoids the need for inserting hardware or using messy adhesives, and allows for easy post-processing to achieve a smooth, presentable finish. The approach is economical and practical for applications requiring added mass without compromising the object's appearance.
