Difference between revisions of "Alphabet Cookie Cutters (Q43770)"

After literally tens of minutes of of development, I think I have a good process for making alphabet shaped cookie cutters (or any shape cookie cutters for that matter) To build one of these in sketchup: - Make a shape and extrude it to about 1.5 or 2 cm (3/4") - Use the offset tool to make 2mm (1/8") line around the perimeter of the shape. Holes in letters are problematic, you may have to draw by hand. - push the new smaller shape back to 1/8" less than your original extrusion. this makes a "floor" and "walls" - sharpen the walls - push "holes" in the base so you can get the material out after you cut Note, this is an upgrade from my previous cutters, thing 6979 http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6979
