Mini Tape Gun - Cutter Strip Holder

thingiverse

I designed brycelowe's tape dispenser, but the included printable tape cutter didn't work as smoothly as I wanted. To solve that problem, I created a new part with a thin groove that takes a serrated metal blade from an old wax paper roll (Waxtex brand). This is similar to mclambglass's remix, but only needs one replacement part instead of the whole dispenser body. The new part works with the other version 2.0 files in brycelowe's original design. I rebuilt it from scratch by measuring the plastic cutter piece. After printing, I cut a piece of metal strip to length and flattened the holes so it would fit into the groove of the printed piece. This does make cutting the tape easier, so I'm sharing the design if others want to try it out.
