Customizable Name Cookie Cutter

This is a customizer for personalized cookie cutters which allows for any text in any font. The cutter is just a simple circle, but it's designed better than virtually all other 3D printable cookie cutters because the cutting edge tapers to a fine point. All dimensions are easily configured in the customizer.  It can also create just a name presser without any cutter to be used with any other shape cutter.

I also have two other cookie cutter designs:
Cannabis Cookie Cutter - Marijuana Leaf
Customizable Name Heart Cookie Cutter

Running the Customizer

This download includes a .SCAD file to create customized 3D printable models. By simply entering the desired name and optionally setting some simple parameters from drop-down boxes and sliders you can easily create your own customized model.

You will have to first install OpenSCAD (free software) on your own computer to process the .SCAD file and present the customizer parameters. Download OpenSCAD and get started. For further details on running the customizer see DrLex's instructions on How to Run Customizer on Your Own Computer.

You can use any font available on your system. The OpenSCAD "Help=>Font List" menu item shows what fonts are available. Most of the fonts listed in the drop-down selection for this thing can be downloaded from the Google Fonts repository.

To make a font available to OpenSCAD you have three options:

• Install the font to the system. The procedure for installing system fonts is dependent on what operating system and what version you are using (Ubuntu Linux 16.01, Ubuntu Linux 20.04, Windows 7, Windows 10, Mac OS 9, Mac OS X, etc. ). If you don't know how to install a font on your system then search the web for instructions.
• Add the font file to your fonts folder, creating the folder if it doesn't already exist. On Linux this would be something like "/home/YOURUSERNAME/.fonts" and on Windows 10 it would be something like "C:/Users/YOURUSERNAME/.fonts".
• Add the font to the folder that contains the OpenSCAD file that you want to use the fonts. You will also have to add to the OpenSCAD file the 'use <fontname.ttf>' command substituting the filename of the font for "fontname.ttf".

Close OpenSCAD if it was open while you were making the font available and then relaunch it after you have installed/added the font.

Alternative to Installing OpenSCAD on Your Computer 

This model is also published on the Thingiverse web site and the Thingiverse online customizer may be used to create your personalized models.

Beware that the Thingiverse web site has been an unstable disaster since March 2020 and they weren't even processing their customizer jobs for over 2 years (July 10, 2020 to August 4, 2022). If you try to use it and your job is still sitting in the queue after several minutes, that probably means they stopped creating the customizer models again and your job is never going to be processed. It might be only a temporary stoppage so you could hope for the best and try again later.
