Patent ID: 7300616

Claim:
A method of creating an article of manufacture, said method comprising the steps of providing a syntactic cement material in a first reservoir; providing a catalyst in a second reservoir; providing a mixing head assembly; mixing said syntactic cement material, from said first reservoir, with said catalyst, from said second reservoir, only within said mixing head assembly; providing a drying agent in a third reservoir; providing said drying agent from third reservoir within said mixing head assembly as said syntactic cement material and said catalyst are being mixed while preventing said drying agent from being communicated to said first and second reservoirs; mixing said received drying agent with said syntactic cement material and said catalyst as said catalyst and said syntactic cement material are being mixed within said mixing head assembly, thereby creating a certain mixture; creating a mold; placing said certain mixture within said created mold by communicating said certain mixture from said mixing head assembly into said mold, wherein said placement of said drying agent into said mixing assembly and said prevention of said drying agent from being communicated to said first and second reservoirs allows said certain mixture to have constant compressibility; and allowing said certain mixture to harden within said created mold, thereby forming said article of manufacture.
