Ice pop stick

thingiverse

Story Growing up, I had a blast enjoying ice cream with sticks in this very form. The unique thing about them was that they could be customized and assembled in countless ways. As a kid, I loved browsing through pictures of the sticks online - specifically on Glacé production's website from 1960 onwards. These days, eco-friendly efforts have shifted stick production to sustainable wood materials. For me as a child, however, the sticks were more than just a tasty treat - they were an outlet for my creative expression. So how did these versatile sticks come together? I started by sketching out designs in FreedCAD's IcePopStick.FCStd file and exported IcePopStickElement.stl for all center elements. Next up, I sketched out the headers in FreedCAD's IcePopStickHeader.FCStd file and exported IcePopStickHeader.stl for both end elements. The final step was to write assembly code in OpenSCAD using IcePopStick.scad. This file imports the previously created IcePopStickElement.stl and IcePopStickHeader.stl files, allowing users to customize the number of elements from 1 to 10 - with 8 being the standard value. Print I've already got all 1-10 files ready for printing: IcePopStick_1.stl to IcePopStick_10.stl.
