Abstract
A nozzle for depositing the shaped layer of the pliable material includes a platform having a shaping tip. The shaping tip has converging sides at one end and generally parallel sides at the other end. The portion of the tip at the first end has a lower elevation than the portion of the tip at the second end. Holes for moving the pliable material are provided in the platform on each side of the tip and in tips intermediate its ends. The different elevation and converging end minimizes if not eliminates tailing.
