Width/height are automatic; this sets trough depth only.
4 mm
The printed shell wall, not the plaster.
20 mm
The ledge the insert sits on. Wider carries a heavier pour, narrower leaves a bigger opening underneath.
20 mm
Extra trough length past each end for a solid plaster border.
0.35 mm
9 mm
Ball-and-socket bumps that lock the plaster pieces back into alignment. Too big can trap the model.

Fit is the play between the two cast pieces, not a printer tolerance: lower locates better, higher goes together more easily. Raise the draft if a natch breaks off when you pull the plaster out.
Position is a share of the room the mold leaves, not a distance, so every setting lands in solid plaster. 0 puts the natches near the middle, 100 out at the wall. The middle setting leaves the most plaster around them.

Seam fit is the slot the housing walls sit in: drop it if your printer is accurate, raise it if the parts will not go together. Clamp grip makes the clamps bite as you push them down instead of sliding on loose; drop it to 0 if a clamp will not seat. With end clamps the wall seams overlap to stop leaks; corner clamps keep plain seams. Still run a thin bead of petroleum jelly along every seam before you pour.
