Silica Glass as a mold for BMG. Another interesting concept. Thx for sharing.
With recent advancement of silica glass surface treatment via laser etc., cell phone shell with glass coated body has infinite possibility for various texture for "look and feel".
With that being said, (silica) glass is (silica) glass. It is fragile. One has to put a protective case for practical daily usage.
In "strong glass" world, it is not obvious Corning's advancement towards strong and agile can allow "post formed" surface treatment.
Same thing can be said about "metallic glass". "post formed" surface treatment is brutally expensive. Lugee has a hard time replicating glossy and strong mid frame.
Surface coating (reverse of CNC) was an after thought to provide the similar effect. Apple has patent for that and that patent drove LQMT stock to 44c back in 2017. Thanks to JP and JB.
