Silicone Spatula Mold and Handle

thingiverse

This is a printable mold for a silicone spatula. This spatula is designed based on standard commercial size for spatulas. This has STL files for both the silicone spatula mold and the handle to be made from PLA. In order to make sure the handle can actually be printed I had to break it into 3 pieces. they will need to be glued together. all parts of the mold and handle can be printed as is without any need for supports. mold has room for silicone spill over. You will need to just snip the spill over. use a few rubber bands to hold the two mold parts together while the silicone cures. I would highly recommend using food grade silicone for this application. Something like this should be good: https://www.amazon.com/Mold-Star-Silicone-Making-Rubber/dp/B00LU4YFK6 Plenty of quantities for lower prices. A quick remark about Silicone Mold mix. There are a few hardness levels for silicone mold mixes, measured as "Shore A Hardness". A quick google search for "silicone mold hardness" will show you multiple images to see the different options. For this specific application a hardness level of A20 would do the job!
