Key Features
- Adjustable dimensions – set diameter, length, and chamfer size
- Split mode – creates a flat-bottom “firewood-style” half dowel for stronger horizontal printing with no supports needed
- Smoothness control – choose your resolution based on use case
- Chamfered ends – easy to insert and clean-looking
- Support-free design – optimized for FDM printing
How to Use
- Adjust the parameters (size, split mode, etc.)
- Click Download to get the 3MF file
- Open in Bambu Studio or your preferred slicer and print
⚠️ When using split mode, place the flat side down when printing — no supports required.
Built for Real-World Printing
- Optimized for horizontal printing: FDM printers are strongest along layer lines. By laying the dowel flat with the flat cut on the bottom, you get better resistance to shear stress.
- Support-free and stable: Normally, cylindrical shapes roll or need support when printed sideways. This generator solves that by slicing the dowel flat, so it prints cleanly and stays firmly in place.
- Ideal for woodworking, jigs, furniture, hardware, and hobby projects
Print Tips
- Always print horizontally for maximum strength
- Adjust smoothness depending on your needs
- Use 100% infill for added weight and durability if required
