Customizable ceramic slip one-piece mold form

February 9, 2025
Description
This is a mold form for a 1-piece ceramic slip mold.
It is customizable in OpenSCAD with many parameters to control the star-shaped polygon at the top and bottom, the roundness of the points, the shape of the side (round, straight, or serpentine), the indentation at the bottom of the final dish, height, resolution, etc.
The only thing to watch out for is to view the model from the top after rendering, to be sure that the part gets smaller as elevation increases, so that when you make your mold from this form, the form doesn't get trapped inside the mold.
To customize in OpenSCAD, BOSL2 is required to be installed in your OpenSCAD/libraries directory.
