I recently purchased a Sunlu FC01 Filament Connector to splice filament remnants onto new filament spools.  This model was created to trim the filament ends with uniform, matching 45 degree cuts.

A single edge razor blade is used for the cutter; always be careful when working with sharp tools, and store the jig out of reach of children and animals.

Parts Required:

  • One single-edge razor blade

Printing Notes:

  • PLA works fine for this model.
  • Print using 0.15mm layer height, structural, 15% infill.
  • Supports are not required.
  • Please DO NOT use the .bgcode file that has been provided (always slice your own files for your specific printer, filament, environment, etc.).  The files were only included to provide a reference for approximate print time.

Miscellaneous Notes/Comments:

  • When trimming the filament ends, place the cutting jig on a firm surface, as a fair amount of force is required when pressing the blade through the filaments.
