This was designed to trim filament ends to a neat 45 degree bevel as recommended by printer manufacturers for error free insertion into extruders, especially ones with a mechanical filament sensor.

It prints and works well in PLA. (Obviously it cuts just about any 1.75mm filament.)

Parts required (apart from the printed plastic):

• An 18mm snap off utility knife blade section eg Stanley.
• M3 hex nut
• M3 screw 15mm
