* When testing the 0,8 mm trace I hit a roof with how much power I could consume with the robot. I could only get up to 30 watts and I did not manage to break the trace after powering it for a few minutes. The maximum I found before it started discoloring was 24 watts at 54 degrees celsius. This was measured after it was left on for 2 minutes.

* I could not get to the 1mm trace because the robot could not draw more than 30 watts. So thats why these are not filled in the table.

## Extra notes on temperature
|
||||
When something keeps fluctuating in heat it will increase in size and shrink again. This can make it so your board deteriorate faster and make traces break faster. So it isn't recommended to use high wattages in pcb traces.
|
||||
|
||||
## Recommendations for next time
|
||||
Make bigger pads to hookup the power easier to the pcb and maybe remove all the excess copper but that takes a super long time.

## Milling the moulds
|
||||
Milling the moulds didn't go that straight forward for me. Henk thought us how to mill the moulds and it was a bit different than milling wood. For example the residu of the milling we where going to use to melt into a new block.
|
||||
|
||||
After we have fastened the block using the wood we need to turn down the spindle speed for 18000 RPM to 6000 RPM
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
We also needed to change this in Vcarve otherwise the toolpaths won't 't get calculated properly.
|
||||
|
||||
To mill a wax block it first needs to be fastened. We did that using 4 pieces of wood.
|
||||
|
||||
### Small accident
|
||||

|
||||
While fastening the wood push it into the wax block. Otherwise it may get loose during milling and this can happen.
