Strap Cutters for Leather - Fixed Sizes
Description
Edit 2: Added a 2 inch strap cutter. Edit 1: Added a 1 1/2 inch strap cutter. I am a leather worker and I find myself cutting a lot of straps... I also found myself getting tired of the traditional adjustable strap cutters. Not only were they unwieldy, but due to the adjustable nature of the tool, creating truely consistent straps time after time was nearly impossible. So, I modeled these strap cutters in the three sizes I most commonly use. The tool is designed to cut up to 10 oz vegetable tanned leather. Each strap cutter takes a standard Tandy Leather Strap Cutter blade, and it can be retained with a small screw (although I am unsure if the screw is really necessary). I have created .stl files for 1/2, 3/4, and 1 inch cutters. With the tolerances on my printer, I am able to slide the blade into the slot with needle nose pliers. The file can be printed without supports by putting the flat area at the top of the cutter on the print bed. I used a 0.2mm layer height... obviously a finer layer height would produce a smoother texture, but I like the layer lines for improved grip on the tool.
