I guess the Tool Designer and Cheap ass-ed genes are hard at it again this week. Been covering molding with my Engineering students as well. Got off on the quest for a dumbbell eye mold again. As with every good molding designing project I enlisted the Metals Teacher, Mr Joe Walker. He is a pretty accomplished practical Engineer in his own right. Did most of the mold design totally on his own after I shared the bullet mold and few other thoughts.

Started from the stand point of a bullet mold that has a shear to cut the spru and runner off.

Don't have pictures of the mold yet. Still refining. Here's some of the product.
