Chompy, The Filament Shark

May 12, 2023
Description
Chompy, The Filament Shark cuts the ends of your filament leaving a nice 40º shark bite across the end of the filament. Chompy doesn't leave filament ends everywhere, and has a big stomach for holding many filament ends.
When Chompy is full, just lift the (magnetically latched) fin to let it poop all the waste filament into the bin.
This is a relatively simple print. No support required.
