Abstract
A method of fabricating an object from a heat curable polymer such as silicone is provided. The method is carried out by using additive manufacturing to fabricate a portion of a mold and filling the portion of the mold with the heat curable polymer. The polymer is then heated and the steps of mold fabrication and filling are repeated until the object is fabricated.
