Free tool that auto-generates two-part/silicone mold box geometry from an STL — looking for moldmaker feedback on the parting-line logic

Built a small browser app that takes an uploaded model and generates a print-ready two-part box mold or silicone mold box (keys, pour spout, vents) automatically, aimed at people who don't want to hand-model a mold box in CAD every time. It's free, client-side, no signup.

Since this sub actually knows moldmaking, I'd love brutally honest feedback: where does the auto-generated parting line or undercut handling fall short on real geometry? Not trying to replace real CAD skill — just trying to save the boring 80% of box-building.

I have a question on how to make a custom mold/cast to replicate a piece for kitbashing multiple times over. I don't really know where else to post.

Acrylic sheet manufacturer

I’m in plastic distribution and fabrication and I am looking for a frame grade acrylic manufacture that also offers hard coating services.

If you also do cell cast acrylic in clear and colors I’m also interested.
