Parametric Cylinder Mold

🛠️ Parametric Two-Part Cylinder Mold with Fitted Base

This is a fully customizable, heavy-duty two-part cylinder mold system designed for casting silicone, concrete, resin, wax, or clay.

The model includes two interlocking mold halves with generous alignment flanges and a dedicated solid base plate that securely locks the halves together at the bottom to prevent blowouts, shifting, or leaks during your casting process.

✨ Key Features

• True Diameter Input: No more doing circle math in your head. Enter your exact desired internal diameter (the straight line across the opening), and the model scales flawlessly.
• Fully Parametric Design: Change the height, wall thickness, or alignment flange widths instantly using the OpenSCAD Customizer tool.
• Dual-Unit Support: Built-in support for both Metric (mm) and Imperial (Inches) calculations.
• Auto-Safe Text Debossing: The mold automatically engraves the exact Height and Diameter dimensions onto the parts. If you choose thin walls, the script intelligently shrinks the text depth to guarantee a safe remaining wall thickness—it will never pierce through your mold.
• Print-Ready Fit Tolerances: The base plate includes a built-in, adjustable clearance tolerance (0.4mm by default) around the cylinder walls and flanges, ensuring a smooth slip-fit that won't jam or fuse together after 3D printing.
• Vertical Labeling: The cylinder features clear, vertically oriented text for easy identification when stored on shelves.

🖨️ Recommended Print Settings

• Material: PETG or PLA (PETG is highly recommended if you are casting materials that generate heat, like epoxies or fast-curing resins).
• Supports: None required! All models are designed to sit flat on the build plate for clean, support-free printing.
