Modular Flasks V6.7 - A modular 3d printed pattern system for casting your own metal casting flasks

thingiverse

Hi everyone, I'm excited to share this modular flasks project with you! It all started when I wanted to create my own metal casting flask from aluminum. To make that happen, I needed a pattern to cast the individual parts, which led me to explore 3D printing reusable and interchangeable modules for sand casting. The idea is simple yet powerful: by combining different modules in various orders, you can create unique patterns with precise sizes tailored to your specific needs. This approach has worked well on my own printer, but I recommend printing a few small extension pieces (40mm) beforehand to ensure the parts fit together seamlessly. You'll find all the necessary module files and README documentation within the zipped file. If you encounter any issues, please refer to the README for more information. Also, be sure to check out my YouTube playlist, which covers the entire series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXBs2Rge71U&list=PLuA-gfv2vkCdYWejHY2vCy6zNX_icYAWp.
