3D PRINTING INFORMATION

This STL file is intended for use with an FDM 3D printer capable of printing fine details.

For best results:

• Use a properly calibrated printer
• Choose slicer settings appropriate for detailed cutters
• Print with the cutting edge facing upward when supported by the model orientation
• Use a clean, level print bed
• Test your finished cutter with your preferred clay thickness
• Adjust printing settings as needed for your equipment

Because every printer and filament combination is different, some adjustments may be necessary to achieve your preferred results.

CLAY CUTTING TIP

For cutters with fine or intricate details, we recommend using a small amount of water mixed with a drop of dish soap to help prevent clay from sticking inside the cutter.

Lightly dip or dampen the cutting edge and detailed areas before pressing into your clay. This can help create cleaner impressions and make releasing your clay easier.

Use only a small amount of the mixture for best results.
