Last crawled date: 4 years, 1 month ago
This is a bread slicer that can be collapsed into 4 pieces to minimize the required storage space. The slicer supports loafs baked in a 5" x 9" bread pan and knives that are up to 2mm thick. The source code for this design is provided so that it can be modified to support other bread and knife sizes.
You will need to print (1) base, (1) slide, and (2) guides.
To assemble:
Stand a guide upright
Inserts the base onto the guide pegs
Stand the second guide upright
Insert the other side of the base on to the second guide pegs
Insert the stopper into the last knife slits of each guide
To use:
Insert a loaf of bread onto the base
Slide the loaf of bread until it reaches the stopper
Hold the loaf of bread against the stopper
Insert a bread knife into the slits in the guide opposite the stopper
Saw the bread until the knife reaches the base and the slice falls over
Remove the knife
Repeat steps 4-6 until the entire loaf is sliced
WARNING: Be careful not to cut yourself when cutting the last few slices of a loaf.
Change log:
(v1.1) The guide pegs have been tweaked to allow the pieces to lock together for easier storage. The other parts are backwards compatible, so you just need to print 2 new guides to upgrade.
