An interchangeable Extruder Die system, designed to fit a NorthStar Clay Extruder.
Die Base dimensions - 110 x 110 x 11mm, fitting inside a chamber about 89mm across (3.5 inches)
Printed in PLA - Base at 20% infill, inset at 25%
To suspend the inside part of the die, use two 1/4 x 4 inch bolts. Before inserting bolts, drill out the holes in the base and the inset part with a 1/4 drill bit. This gives a tight fit for the holes, keeping the die inset from moving around while extruding.
To create your own inset die, use the Inset Template file, or modify the file on TinkerCAD:
