KWS Pen Blank Mold V2

thingiverse

I am a skilled wood turner who specializes in creating pens. As part of my ongoing experimentation with 3D printing casting blanks, I recently came up with another innovative design that you can also view. For those interested, I previously designed the V1 pen blank mold using Tinkercad. The file has been updated to ensure greater uniformity. To achieve optimal results for casting and drilling, I recommend printing at 100% scale, which will result in solid circles. While I haven't printed this design yet, it's likely that I'll do so soon. This mold measures 5 inches long by 0.75 inches wide and tall, but can be easily resized to suit your specific needs. If you decide to make the design, please share pictures of your print or finished pen. I'm eager to see how it turns out. Feel free to ask questions or suggest ideas for other designs in the comments section below. I appreciate any feedback from fellow makers. Thanks, Knothead.
