Custom Cabochon Template and Dop Stick
thingiverse
This template serves as a cabochon cutting mold, either replacing or complementing the dop stick. Key Features Customizable dimensions enable creation of large round or oval cabochon shapes. The length and diameter of the dop stick (or socket) can be adjusted to suit specific needs. Texture can be added to the surface for enhanced glue or wax adhesion. A socket will be generated if the dop stick is disabled, requiring adjustment unless a dowel holds it securely. A notch on the end of the dop stick can be enabled or disabled for indexed holding in the dop stick holder. To tailor this template, use the customizer or download and edit the .scad file. The showcased print was achieved with ProtoParadigm Dark Stone Gray ProSpec PLA. This project is part of a featured series on protoparadigm.com Print Settings Rafts No Supports No Notes When printing with the dop stick, ensure high infill (30% - 60%) and at least two perimeters for a strong stick. The bottom layer is recessed to maintain shape, but precision in z-home position and bed leveling is crucial for accurate outer edges and texture quality.
