Hana ʻia ka noho me ke kila wikiwiki-kiʻekiʻe a hoʻokala ʻia i hoʻokahi ʻāpana ma o ke paʻi kiʻi ʻekolu-ana (3D printing), kahi e hāʻawi ai i ka ikaika maikaʻi a me kahi ʻālohilohi metala. Kūpaʻa ke kūkulu, a ua hui pono ʻia ke ʻano a me ke kūkulu. Hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia ka noho no ka hoʻomaha, ka heluhelu, a me ka hoʻonaninani.
