It is difficult to precisely machine soft objects such as rubber or sponge which have completely different characteristics compared to metals generally machined by machine tools. The study deals with the first trial of creating an artistic product shape of soft objects by employing an aqueous solution of sodium acetate to fix a workpiece and to improve the stiffness. As a result of conducted experiments, it is found that the usage of the aqueous solution of sodium acetate has the potential of realizing "Dexterous Machining" of soft objects.
