Edge Cleanup and Chamfer Tool

Edge Cleanup and Chamfer Tool

Description

I print a lot of square enclosures and my Z height is not always spot on so I get some extra flashing around the edges of my prints. This was designed to hold a .75" tall standard razor blade and keep your fingers behind guards. It is for trimming and chamfering edges. The flush version trims to the corner and the chamfering version trims about a 1mm wide chamfer at 45º degrees with the blade held at a 60º angle to the edge. Works mostly on straight edges. Watch out because the blade is still exposed at the tip. As is it is set up for a pull cut for someone right handed. If you prefer a push cut (which is safer but I find less controlled) mirror the tool. Take care not to pull the tool into your holding hand or clamp your piece.
