Square Bioplastic Tile Mold with Corner Pins
Created today
Description
What it's for
A square casting mold for thin, translucent starch-based bioplastic tiles. Four pins inside the cavity leave a hole in each corner of the cast tile, so neighbouring tiles can be tied together with fishing line into a stained-glass-style hanging grid.
Dimensions
- Cavity: 120 × 120 mm, 2 mm radius inside corners
- Outer size: 124 × 124 mm, total height 6.2 mm
- Walls: 2 mm thick, 5 mm above the floor
- Floor: 1.2 mm, continuous and flat underneath
- Pins: 4 mm diameter, 4 mm tall above the floor, centred 8 mm from both adjacent inner walls, clear of the walls
Print notes
- One solid piece, no supports, flat underside
- Pins are fused into the floor
- Low filament use thanks to the thin floor and walls
Remix ideas
- Change the pin spacing for larger or smaller holes
- Add mid-edge pins for extra connection points
- Scale the cavity for rectangular or smaller tiles

Open Square Casting Mold Frame
A flat, bottomless square frame for casting starch bioplastic sheets on a silicone baking mat. Outer size is 124 × 124 mm with a 120 × 120 mm opening, 5 mm tall, 2 mm walls and 2 mm corner radii. Remix hooks Opening size (120 mm): change it for other sheet sizes; the outer size is the opening plus twice the wall. Height (5 mm): sets the casting thickness. Raise it for thicker sheets. Wall (2 mm): 3–4 mm gives a stiffer frame that resists warping. Pairs with: a silicone mat, or a clip-on cross brace or divider to cast several smaller tiles. Lower edges are flat, so it prints with no supports.
Toy Story Sky Cloud Cookie Cutter
A cookie cutter echoing the wallpaper clouds from Andy's room: a big bump on the upper left, smaller puffs along the top and a long flat base. The centre is open so dough passes straight through. 15 mm tall wall, about 1.2 mm thick, thin clean cutting edge on the flat bottom Widened rim at the top for pressing by hand About 100 mm wide, prints flat with no supports
Three-Slot Curved Taco Stand
A taco stand that holds three shells upright and open-side up, so fillings stay in place while you load them. The base is a flat 180 × 120 mm block with rounded corners. Three curved slots are cut into it, each one cradling a single shell. Four round feet lift the base off the table. Each slot arcs along its length, which follows the curve of a folded shell. Three curved slots, each 90 mm long and 20 mm wide Slots spaced 55 mm apart across the 180 mm base Base 22 mm thick, with the slot floor 6 mm above the underside of the block Four round feet, 5 mm tall, with chamfered edges Rounded vertical corners on the base Prints flat on its feet, with no supports needed If your shells are wider than 20 mm, widen the slots before printing. Food-safe filament such as PETG is a sensible choice, and a wipe-down after use keeps it clean.
Obsidian — Ribbed Can Cooler with Handle
Obsidian is a matte-black-ready can cooler for standard 330 ml cans, with a reinforced side handle, diagonal grip ribs and a flat front panel reserved for names or logos.

GlideTrak — Under-Shelf Stemware Rack
GlideTrak is an under-shelf stemware storage block designed to securely hold up to four standard wine glasses upside down by their stems. The dual-channel architecture features a continuous track that flares wide at the opening, allowing smooth, one-handed retrieval and stowing of glasses without requiring precise visual alignment. Engineered as a robust mounting block, it secures flush against the underside of a cabinet while maintaining a clean profile. Features Flared Entry: The stem slot narrows from a 14 mm flared opening down to a 9 mm continuous track, guiding standard stems seamlessly into place. Concealed Mounting: Six countersunk holes with screwdriver access tunnels provide secure upward mounting, hiding the screw heads deep within the block. Support-Free Printing: Engineered to be printed standing vertically on its flat back wall, allowing the internal cavities to form cleanly without the need for support material. Dimensions Overall Footprint: 212 mm wide × 170 mm deep × 22 mm thick. Base Clearance: 82 mm wide internal cavity per channel to accommodate standard glass bases. Stem Track: 9 mm track width, expanding to a 14 mm flare at the front entry.
Vented Snap-On Toothbrush Cover
A slide-on travel cover designed to enclose the head of a standard adult toothbrush.

Interior cavity measures 26 mm wide, 16 mm deep, and 33 mm tall Vented top allows passive moisture escape Flex-slit base expands to accommodate varying handle tapers Snap-fit retention bumps grip the brush neck
