Thread Cutter Addons: Stand and Rivet

thingiverse

These are some "add-ons" for the thing by sgtbane: A thread cutter to reuse old rotary blades. The main "flower" piece houses one 45mm rotary blade. The original design came with a container to use as a holder and to store the flower piece when not in use; but I struggled printing the thread of the container lid. Plus I didn't like the finished container, it was much too bulky for my taste, and I plan to leave the cutter assembled anyway. Hence the design of a different stand for it. Plus, while the flower bottom and lid fit quite snugly, I wanted to minimize the risk of it coming open and the blade falling out (if, for example, a cat would decide to jump on the sewing table and throw the thread cutter down to the floor...). For this purpose I rescaled the plastic rivet by Krencl to fit exactly through the center hole.
