Description

I dont like the brand name x-acto grips, low on safety and doesnt support the back of the blade so can twist up. This supports the back of the blade and has storage in the grip for 3-4 additional blades. built in place for an M3 allen wrench so you can quickly change blades. and has a cover.

This is still a thang in progress. There are some issues I'd like to resolve and want to make this as printable as possible. I would like to adjust the design to make it print at slightly larger layer heights, I know not every printer is 0.1mm capable. Also would like to find a better storage solution for extra blades.

any recommendation on print orientation?

Hey LowCarbCoder, Sorry this is my first uploaded print didnt really pay attention to come back looking at comments. You can print it as you did, but i adjusted the print orientation in the file to what i found to be the most printable and strong. Printing it up and down makes the best looking one but could potentially snap at the layer lines. Printing it along the long side with supports makes the print lines much stronger.
