Creating a Silicone Mold Blank with Your Laser (Design Portion in Adobe Illustrator)

So this is part one of my tutorial on how to make your own silicone mold matrix using your laser. First we need to take our design and make the parts needed to create the acrylic blank to pour our silicone. In this tutorial I'll show you how to use the offset path function to create the needed parts.
To learn more about part two (assembling the matrix, pouring silicone into your mold, and casting your resin piece) check out the associated blog:

Thank you so much for this video! I watched it back when you originally posted, but I didn’t have a laser cutter then. I couldn’t wrap my mind around it at the time. It makes much more sense to me now that I can actually apply the lesson you taught in real life. 🤦🏽‍♀️😂❤️

All the follow up content on casting the mold is in the blog in the description. I didn't end up making any second video for this as I did not have time.
