Pro Cutter for Filament and PTFE Tube

NEW VERSION HERE! - Supports P2S blades!

 

Handy and compact cutters for trimming taped or bent filament ends and PTFE tubes. No special hardware or accessories needed - just use a spare Bambu Replacement Filament Cutter that comes with the printer. Great to keep next to your printer, in the workshop, or to carry with you. The lever mechanism makes each cut effortless.

 

Note! See BoM for correct cutter - X1/P1/A1/H2S cutter is compatible - H2D/H2C/P2S cutters are not compatible.

Assembly:

Print with regular or AMS profile. Assembly is simple - shown in the video -  and presented below.

1A. Slide the link in place.

1B. Place the blade in the blade holder.

2. Slide the blade holder in place - Note the orientation, U-slot upwards.

3. Mate the link with the blade holder U-slot. The link snaps in place.

4. Done! Close the handle to actuate the cutter - Test it on some spare filament.

(Optional) Attach split ring keychain to the hole in the handle if you like.

Note! During print profile testing I noticed that with some filaments the link is looser, causing the blade not to move all the way out. I've included longer links on a separate profile. Print and test these if needed.

Disassembly:

 

1. Open the lever all the way upward (¼ turn) - this causes the link to pop out from the blade holder.
2. Remove the link by aligning it with the handle and pulling out.
3. Pull the blade holder out - it pops out when pulled towards the hinge.
