Detailing tool

I've made this detailing tool using the A-series filament cutter blade for removing supports and excess material on intricate models and miniatures. Sometimes you want to apply the force directly onto the thing you’re trying to process, instead of cutting sideways as you usually would with a knife.

I used chicago screws to connect the two halves together - my first designs used magnets, but I found it to be impractical, when storing the tool together with other things.
Chicago screws are very practical, even if you don't want to print this tool, you should keep in mind this kind of screw as an option for connecting parts, when designing your next project. :)

Kleiner Helfer fürs Entfernen von Supports und anderm Zeug

Hab das Werkzeug hier erstellt, um ne gute Option zu haben Supports und Details auf kleinen oder etwas komplexeren Modellen zu bearbeiten. Skalpells und so sind gut, aber manchmal macht man durch das seitliche Schneiden mehr kaputt als beabsichtigt.

Nach welchem Werkzeug suche ich, wenn ich hier die Batterie wechseln will?

Hab keinen Plan wie man diesen Deckel nennt und finde daher auch nicht das richtige Werkzeug :(

Vielleicht kennt sich hier ja jemand zufällig aus.

I hope my pictures fit the subreddit. The lenses I used are achromatic lenses I found on a (German) website, I added a photo of my 3d printed accessory at the end.

If you have questions or feedback for my pictures, please let me know. (I'm not an experienced photographer and took these photos without a camera mount or special equipment, so please don't be mean).

The picture of the fly's eye is cropped, so not full 12 MP with this magnification, but I think it’s still pretty awesome, considering I took it with a phone.

I worked on a lens attachment kit for the iPhone 16 Pro for the last several months. Took a lot of time, nerves, filament and some sweat and blood from me :'). But I finally could upload this final version today and not only wanted to share some first pictures I took with it, but also a method for connecting printed parts to each other, that I personally haven't seen yet (second picture). I created an "U" shaped hole and extruded filament through the holes of the part that gets connected directly into the U hole. This created an extremely strong connection, much stronger than super glue or screws that would fit the parts.

If you have questions etc. let me know in the comments.
