String cutter

Yeah sorry about the dimensions. It is 5.5 inches long by 1.5 inches in diameter. I like the diameter but having it be a few inches longer would be nice.

I made one like that some time back and it works great. The wooden one. Your design is alot better than the one I made. It adjusts out farther to cut wider strips. Thank you for sharing.

Trastu,

¿La mirada a la foto original del cortador (en el comentario 9)- ve los huecos grandes? Esto es realmente 3 pedazos, con un cerrojo que lo mantiene unido. El pequeño espacio entre los pedazos, un vertical y otro en un ángulo, es donde el cuchillo es insertada. Es sostenido en el lugar por la presión de la tuerca de mariposa en el cerrojo de asamblea. El anillo es movido hacia o lejos de el cuchillo para controlar la anchura. El anillo también puede ser colocado cerca de la ranura angulada para biselar el cordón.

Al menos esto es como lo veo trabajar.

Trastu,

Look at the original pic of the cutter (in post # 9) - see the big gaps? It's actually 3 pieces, with a bolt holding it together. The little space between the pieces, one vertical and the other at an angle, is where the blade is inserted. It is held in place by pressure from the wing nut on the assembly bolt. The collar is moved towards or away from the blade to control width. The collar can also be placed close to the angled slot to bevel the lace.

At least that's how I see it working.
