thingiverse

The Tinkeriffic Sawmill brings precision-cut snacks to children worldwide. It slices carrots and planks pears while inspiring countless "who cut the cheese?" jokes. This innovative invention is based on Willis's words. To assemble, a Zip archive includes a bed, blade, foot, and optional guide bar; print two feet. Photos of pictorial Tinkertoy assembly instructions are available at http://zheng3.com/?p=1426. The kit requires no post-processing, just build a support structure from Tinkertoys. The saw blade easily fits the axle, while connections allow for minor diameter and flex variations. User can compensate with tape or adhesive. Assemble it as a two-person job, holding the crank over a countertop edge and milling snacks at 60 RPM. Use the guide bar for straight cuts, tested with carrots, bread, cheese, and apples.
