sorry long post, I designed some popsicle molds this weekend. My main inspiration came from Arthurian legends and the manga Bersek.
It was a cool weekend project and if you know anyone in the niche market of sword shaped popsicle, let me know ehehhe
Idea:
first design:
sizing and corrections
second draft:
stand finished, still plenty of mistakes
final design:
redesigned the stick so you can add alcohol in the little container before the juice is fully frozen :)

- How weird—I was just last night sketching out popsicle moulds to cut in metal over the next month or so—i sincerely hope you're not copying my new MasterPlan!detritus
- Have you gradiated the internal structure to facilitate release? That'd be my main concern with an extrusion printed mould.detritus
- ahaha so, are you saying there's a market out there for popsicle molds ehhehe, but yeah, even with this very high .35 layer height, it still pops out quiteGeorgesII
- easily, I'm pretty sure if I push it lower, it will just slide out with no problem, I had more problem with the stick, plastic isn't wood so it tended to breakGeorgesII
- Ah,sorry—I meant the 'release' of the frozen lolly itself—have you tried it out yet? I don't suppose that Carbon Fibre filament would be any use for your stick?detritus
- I have the same problem with acrylic—laser cut it too thin and it snaps with gay abandon. Makes it useless in any practical sense for that sort of thing.detritus
- What no pictures of the lollies!?********
- @detritus, yep, made me realize how wood is unbeatable in the popsicle field eheh @set, will post tomorrow :)GeorgesII
- Careful you are using food grade non-toxic plastics! :Dbaseline_shift
