Aircraft Rivet Cutter Gridfinity Holder

This tool is used in aircraft sheet metal repair and construction to trim solid rivets to a correct length for driving.  Usually it's better to buy the correct length rivet in the first place, but this is not always practical; this tool is designed to cleanly shear rivets to length.  The Gridfinity holder will fit it into 2x6 squares.  I opted to split this into two halves, to allow it to fit on a smaller print bed.  Since the cutter is spring loaded, I am using a rubber band made from a bicycle inner tube to hold the handles together while stowed.  The holder will keep the handles together without the band, but it's easier to pick out of the recess with the band.

Like my other Gridfinity models, the base is altered to accept 6x3 magnets as a press fit, with the upper surface of the magnet holes modified to make the slicer bridge across correctly for a clean result.  Due to the size of this model, I have included sacrificial “mouse ears” in the CAD to give the ends more surface area to help prevent them warping off the bed.  These will need to be removed after printing.

Both halves were printed out of Overture PLA on my Bear upgraded Mk3S+, using a 0.6mm nozzle, at 0.3mm layer height.
