Hi Hostilestrength, Just last week I completed a similar task successfully, so I can get started on this without any ramp-up time. What plastic and molding process will be used (injection with target press/shot size, and any specific material grade/finish like chrome or texture)? Do you require logos/text or two-color areas, and should the base be integrated with the trophy or a separate assembled part? - Design the part with uniform 2–3 mm walls, 1–2° draft, hidden edge/submarine gate, and strategic ribs/fillets; validate with fill/warp/cooling simulation to prevent sink, weld lines, and warpage. - Use a standard mold base with modular core/cavity inserts for sport emblems and text, plus optimized cooling channels (baffles/conformal where possible) to reduce cycle time and ease future variants. Action Plan: - Requirements: lock dimensions (<12"), aesthetics, material, finish, press limits, expected volumes. - Concept + DFM: 2–3 CAD concepts; define parting line, draft, wall scheme, base strategy. - Simulation + Detail: gate/runner or hot drop, vents, cooling, ejection; iterate from results. - Final Tooling Pack: STEP/IGES, 2D drawings with tolerances, mold assembly, BOM, simulation report. - Prototype + Handoff: SLA/ABS-like print for form/fit, final tweaks, support through T0 samples.
