1 # Notes about the second working cast

4 ### Scale
5 I've tried to use a 1 mm:1 unit equivalancy. This scale is so much broader than any scale I've worked with before and the numbers become arbitrarily large. I think that I should use 1 centimeter:1 unit scale in the future.

7 ## GEM Mold Shell
8 One of the most important parameters is the thickness range of the GEM Mold Shell operator. It is necessary to choose a thickness that is thick enough to print properly and maintain adequate rigidity while being thin enough to remove post-resin cure post-hydrocal cure.

10 According to the original cast which had very good parameters for the GEM Mold Shell, the parameters were set to the following choices:
11 ```
12 Maximum Thickness..... 0.75 (mm/units)
13 Minumum Thickness..... 0.6 (mm/units)
14 Remesh Division Size.. 0.9
15 Ramp.................. Linear
16 ```
17 ## UV Curing
18 Using my Peopoly Phenom curing box, I have basically been using the default settings from 3-6 minutes. I think it would be a good idea to do like 5 minutes of interval curing, if I can figure out how.
