Silicone Trivet Mold
Description
This is a printable mold for a silicone trivet (mat). This trivet is 18cm X 18cm (~7.1" X 7.1") and is ~8mm (0.3") thick. Honeycomb pattern decreases weight, evenly distributes heat as well as enhances grip. Both parts of the mold 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 recommend to use food grade silicone, but not a must for this type of 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!
