ABSTRACT: Tool making from plaster of Paris has been researched. When it is applied alongside Rapid
Prototyping (RP), a tool can be fabricated quickly and easily. This paper presents a study of process condition
for directly constructing a prototype from plaster of Paris with SVM. Two different ways according to the initial
state of plaster: slurry and powder were investigated on the quality of a layer built ...
