    You’ve designed a niche solution to a problem that doesn’t exist.

    Use a box knife. Or, for a more versatile tool, get a Morakniv Companion.

      Good luck getting consistent cuts while you’re freehanding. The idea is to make the nice flat cat scratching pad, and also being able to make the tool with the tool printer you have at home

        I mean, you could make a jig to use a box cutter to make consistent width strips very easily with three pieces of scrap wood. But this commenter coming in here for the express purpose of trying to shit on 3D printer hobbyists was a stupid move on his part.

            I meant without printing anything, for anyone without access to a 3D printer. This was in response to the above comment about freehanding it.

            To use an ordinary box cutter for this purpose all you need is something to use as an endstop and something to use as a fence, and they have to be parallel to each other.

          Or a ruler. And make the strips the width of the ruler. The only “extra” needed is a cutting surface. This plastic gizmo simply eliminates the need for a work surface, nothing else.

      I hope you only drink room temperature tap water. Any flavor makes you a hypocrite.

      This looks a lot like trolling. The community here certainly doesn’t seem to care for it.

        I don’t like what you’ve said so you’re a troll. We don’t serve your kind around here.

        SMRT.
