A method of forming a three-dimensional object, the object having a wall and an internal cavity, with the wall having an upper portion and a lower portion, is carried out by: providing a carrier and an optically transparent member having a build surface, the carrier and the build surface defining a build region therebetween; filling the build region with a polymerizable liquid; continuously or intermittently irradiating the build region with light through the optically transparent member to form a solid polymer from the polymerizable liquid, and continuously or intermittently advancing (e.g., sequentially or concurrently with said irradiating step) said carrier away from said build surface to form said three-dimensional object from said solid polymer, with the method further including the step of forming a breathing orifice in the wall upper portion (e.g., adjacent the carrier) while forming said three-dimensional object. Apparatus for carrying out the method is also described. |
