Knife Block for GraniteStone Kitchen Knives
Description
Sizing: Designed to fit Prusa MINI+ print bed, so parts are made with 17 cm x 17 cm in mind, hence the back being broken into two parts. Pins are included to connect the two back pieces, with glue. "Full" back pieces are included for larger print beds if desired. Options: My original (pictured) only uses screws for the top pieces, and the front & back are glued to the base. This version is included, as well as the "for screws" version, where only glue is needed for the pins in the back (unless the "Full" back is used). Hardware: Designed for M3x12 button head socket cap screw (head w/ dia. 5.6 mm and depth 2 mm) and M3 hex nut (5.5 mm wide x 2.5 mm thick), inserted into the slots at the top and bottom of the front and back, as well as the Steak Knives Tray. If using entirely screw parts, you will need 10 of each, otherwise you will need 6 of each. Other notes: The screws in the top can be used to conveniently swap out the knife trays for alternates if the knife set changes; the screws vs. glue decision for the base is up to preference. Not absolutely required, but I recommend added a base to lower the center of mass, as it can be easily tipped over (knives are considerably heavier than the print). Alternatively, any base that sticks out past the front to move the tipping point forward would help. In my final version (pictured) I've added a polycarbonate (Lexan) sheet for this exact purpose and it worked wonderfully. I also added felt pads to the bottom. **I've not printed the "for screws" nor the "Full" parts, only designed them anticipating someone preferring them, so they haven't technically been tested for bugs. Please let me know what you think and if there are any real issues with the parts!
