Letter Opener w/ no.11 xacto blade

thingiverse

This is a mail opener. A no.11 xacto blade is press-fitted into the slit. No screws are required to keep the blade in place--the friction and tightness of the slit is strong enough to keep the blade stationary. Material Needed: - No.11 Xacto Blade Printed in PLA. NO supports NO rafts/adhesion structures Bridging mode on (optional) I included the version that I printed with my name on it, and a version wthout any image or logo. How to Put the Blade In: 1. Insert the pointy end of the knife into the slot to cut any material that might have drooped during printing. This should clear enough space for you to insert the dull side of the blade into. 2. Once the slot is cut out wide enough, Flip the blade around (the not sharp end) and try to push it in the opened slot. You might want to push it on a stack of paper or wood to prevent any damage. 3. Loop a wire through the hole of the xacto blade and pull it down the slot
