Innovations in Mold Making Techniques

I’ve been diving into some new techniques for mold making lately, especially for plastic injection. Recently, I tested a method using 3D printing for rapid prototyping of molds, and it’s been a game changer in reducing lead times. Anyone else experimenting with hybrid approaches like this?
