This will be an extension of the clay and metal 3D printing that the Hand and Machine lab has been exploring. Glass is made up of similar materials to clay, so I will try to use my knowledge of clay and glazes to find a recipe for a printable paste that when fired will yield glass objects.  We have just begun to play with glass frit to build a recipe in the lab, and I would like to use this final project to expand and grow on this work. Below are some preliminary firing tests.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"459\" src=\"https:\/\/handandmachine.org\/classes\/computational_fabrication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/IMG_3565-1024x459.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7082\" style=\"aspect-ratio:2.2309368191721135;width:507px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/handandmachine.org\/classes\/computational_fabrication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/IMG_3565-1024x459.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/handandmachine.org\/classes\/computational_fabrication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/IMG_3565-300x134.jpg 300w, https:\/\/handandmachine.org\/classes\/computational_fabrication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/IMG_3565-768x344.jpg 768w, https:\/\/handandmachine.org\/classes\/computational_fabrication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/IMG_3565-1536x688.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/handandmachine.org\/classes\/computational_fabrication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/IMG_3565-2048x917.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/handandmachine.org\/classes\/computational_fabrication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/IMG_3565-1140x511.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/handandmachine.org\/classes\/computational_fabrication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/IMG_3565-920x412.jpg 920w, https:\/\/handandmachine.org\/classes\/computational_fabrication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/IMG_3565-575x258.jpg 575w, https:\/\/handandmachine.org\/classes\/computational_fabrication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/IMG_3565-380x170.jpg 380w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Deliverables<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A reliable recipe for a paste made from glass frit that can be printed with the Eazao clay 3D printer. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A kiln program(s) that works with the recipe above to fire the 3D printed objects into glass. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A range of possible sizes and types of forms that work with this process.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Five to ten objects 3D printed and made out of glass.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Grasshopper scripts that generate the gcode for the type of 3D prints that will work with this method. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A grasshopper definition that takes in a form, the nozzle size that was used to print it in glass, and the firing temperature and uses the Kangaroo plug-in to predict the shrinkage and slumping that will occur in the final shape. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Timeline<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Nov 3: Mix and test glass paste recipes that have the correct rheology for printing well with the Eazao clay printer.

The first is by John Klein, Michael Stern, and Giorgia Franchin from Neri Oxman&#8217;s Mediated Matter group at the MIT Media Lab. They built a glass 3D printer that prints molten glass. I am hoping to be able to 3D print glass in a much more affordable and accessible way, but I thought it was a cool project to research and highlight. The next paper investigates making transparent silica glass through powder sintering. The third is about making glass-like sintered material from metallurgical waste. The last is technical documentation of heat and glass from Bullseye Glass, which is where we get our glass frit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li> <a
