About this model
A set of parametric OpenSCAD scripts that generate ready-to-print two-part molds from arbitrary STL models. These scripts can be used to generate either square (with or without rounded corners) or circular two-part molds and are fully parameterized to make it easy to adapt for your application. Refer to the instructions below for some general tips, as well ideas for casting. I have successfully made casts from these molds using wax, Knox gelatin, Oogoo and chocolate. If you have success with other casting media, please leave a comment! Many more pictures of molds and castings I made with these scripts: If you'd like to read about the development process for these scripts, and learn from some of the issues I came across, check out: * First experiment with 3D printing a two-part mold + gelat…
