## Steps
### Step 1: Download the files

Into the files, you will find:

- General drawings
- .IGES files
- .STEP files
- Parasolid files
- Solidworks editable file

<Image src={import('./draw-18c32a17d9c.jpg')} alt="draw-18c32a17d9c.jpg" />

### Step 2: Machine your mould

For the mold, two aluminum blocks measuring 430mm by 255mm by 25mm (16.93in by 10.04in by 0.98in) are required.

Contact a CNC machinist to fabricate the design files.

You can opt to include a cutout for a logo or keep it flat (both options are available for download).

For customization, modify the dimensions or other design aspects using the editable software file. Please share any innovations.

### Step 3: Select the nozzle

### Nozzle and Flange Connection Guide

Select the appropriate flange for your machine nozzle to connect it to the mold.

- **Conical Nozzle**: Use a flat 0.24-inch (6mm) flange with a bevel to receive the nozzle. Ensure it aligns with the screw heads through slots. It is not attached to the mold but pressed with a jack between the mold and nozzle.

- **Screw Nozzle**: Weld the pipe connector to the flange and secure the flange to the mold using closing screws. 

Adjust the design as necessary to suit your requirements.

### Step 4: Add the logo

If you decide to include logos in the mold, add the engraved sheet.

In this example, a metal sheet is engraved using acid etching, a process used in printing.

Trim and file the sheet to its final size, then fit it into the hole.

### Step 5: Inject your hangers!

Heat the machine, insert the plastic, and inject to create your hangers.

The final weight is approximately 81 grams (2.86 ounces).
