🧵 6 MM PET TRIMMER V1 – Ultra-Minimal Precision Cutter

Meet the 6 mm PET Trimmer V1, your ultimate tool for turning irregular PET strips into clean, perfectly measured filament feedstock — with not a single gram of plastic wasted in the design. This little beast is engineered for efficiency, reliability, and zero-fuss use, especially for those who recycle PET bottles into 3D printing filament.

🔧 What It Does

Got a strip from a bottle that's anywhere up to 17.75 mm wide? Feed it through this trimmer and get a precise 6 mm-wide strip on the other side — every time.

It’s especially useful to salvage the curved base and neck areas of bottles, helping you get more usable material and ensuring a more consistent diameter in your final filament.

✂️ Smart Blade System

This V1 model is split into two lightweight parts to avoid structural overkill and warping during printing. It uses two standard 18mm snap-off utility blades, which fit snugly into the guide slots. No fancy tools, no special parts — just smart, simple engineering.

🧱 Assembly Made Simple

Top & base connect using four small screws (even tiny wood screws work just fine).

The trimmer mounts to your bench with two additional screws for stability.

🪛 Easy Access & Maintenance

The top has two viewing holes so you can monitor the strip while trimming.

The base features two side exhaust channels to let trimmed PET flow out freely without clogging.

Designed for quick maintenance — you can clean or replace blades without disassembling the whole setup.
