This is a 3D printable injection mold designed for producing soft plastic lures inspired by the legendary Frapp Geko 190mm — a large‑format vibrotail developed with Russian pro angler Andrey Pitertsov, designed specifically for trophy pike and zander fishing . The mold features a single cavity for efficient production and is optimized for FDM printing (Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality, etc.), while also being compatible with SLA/DLP resin printers.

The 190mm Geko is the 6.9" version in the series, weighing approximately 32.5g . The lure is characterized by its unique scaly surface, rounded drop‑like tail heel, and concentrated tail action with minimal body roll — making it ideal for very slow retrieves with light weights .

Injection Specifications:

Injector diameter: 16mm (compatible with standard hand injectors and small injection machines)

FDM Printing Recommendations:

Layer height: 0.08mm maximum for best surface quality and detail reproduction

Recommended material: PETG or any filament with a higher temperature resistance than PLA (ABS, ASA, Nylon, PET‑CF, PC, etc.)

For large models (over 5 inches / 125mm):

Wall loops (perimeters): 12–15 lines

Top solid layers: 10 layers

Bottom solid layers: 10 layers

Infill density: 10–20% (adjust as needed for strength vs. material usage)

Recommended orientation: cavity side up for best surface quality

Can be printed without supports or with minimal supports depending on orientation

For best results, print with a brim or raft to improve bed adhesion

Mold Features:

Single cavity for the 190mm Geko profile (6.9")

Scaly textured body with pronounced plate‑like relief creating powerful hydroacoustic vibrations

Distinctive rounded, drop‑shaped tail heel that activates at minimum retrieve speeds — works effectively even on very slow retrieves

Concentrated tail action with minimal body roll, ideal for slow presentations

Longitudinal hook grooves on back and belly for Texas rigging and jig head mounting

Optimized runner system for proper material flow

Venting channels along the cavity for air escape during injection

Alignment pins and matching holes for consistent mold closure

Designed for use with hand injectors and small injection machines

Compatible with plastisol, soft PVC, and other soft plastic materials

Thick, durable mold geometry designed for repeated use
