Hi all,
I know most of the typical modification methods are by circumferences and
ply fit reductions.
However, I'm wondering whether anyone has had experience with heuristics
for modifying via:
- Overall Volume (mm^3) - for example, the displacement of the plaster
mold in a bucket of water
- Surface area (mm^2) - for example how much of a cloth it would take to
wrap around the plaster mold.
I feel intuitively that these measurements could be very helpful, but
haven't seen them talked about before.
Thanks!
