It would take a lot of sealing and finishing to make a usable mold from
that output. I also fear detail would be somewhat limited by the paper
thickness and more lost in the sealing and sanding steps.
I have been looking at "3D Printers" and the new generation of ABS ones
seem far more practical as they require very little finishing and there
is no risk of delamanation of the layers. At the same time the prices
are not all that much more. It is an interesting idea though.
