Hardware Needed:

  • #4 cutting blade

  • 2 M3x16 hex screws

  • ballpoint pen spring

To make this design work there are some software changes needing to be made. 

I increased the size of the bed to 410 in the X direction in the stepperX section of the printer.cfg file.

[stepper_x]
position_max: 410

I also changed where priming takes place to be to make sure the new X value would cause an accidental partial cut during priming.  I did this my changing the offset from 5 to 10 in the x direction in the [gcode_macro PROBE_FOR_PRIMING] and [gcode_macro PRIME_BLOB] macros. However I found a quicker way that does require modifying the macros themselves. In the printer.cfg file add the following under the RatOS macro section:

[gcode_macro RatOS]
variable_nozzle_priming: "primeblob"
variable_nozzle_prime_start_x: "min"

This will move the primeblob from the side with the filament cutter to the side with the endstop limit switch.
