Pasta Cutter

thingiverse

This is a versatile pasta cutter that can create various sizes of noodles or pasta by simply adjusting the spacer size. I printed mine with a resolution of 0.1mm and 80% filling at three layers for wall, bottom, and top. The G-code was generated using Cura Engine. The device consists of five key components: Firstly, there's the blade - a 1mm thick piece with reinforcement in the middle to ensure durability. Next up are two shafts, each measuring 5cm in length after I cut them in half from their original 10cm. This decision was made to prevent any potential adhesion issues with the print bed. The handle is essentially hollow with internal beam support for added strength. Finally, there's the handle cap that securely closes off the end of the handle. Having a separate spacer allows me to easily swap out different thicknesses of noodles without having to replace the entire blade.
