Used capsules are often leaky, which could make a mess in the garbage bin. Therefor my family members usually just drop the used capsules in the sink to let it drip instead of throwing them out. Also - many capsules could be recycled, but since they are full of ‘gruff’ and sometimes metal, they need to be taken apart and rinsed before thrown in with the plastic waste.
Therefor I made this small thingy to easily cut open the capsule. This way it will be emptied and ready for disposal much quicker.
There is a small slot in it that will fit ‘one break-off length’ of utility blade. On my printer, the slot is perfectly fit so no glue or anything was needed to keep the blade in place.

Uploaded new file, Capsula breaker v6, with mirrored blade insert for clockwise cut.
It's has always ticked me off that I got it the wrong way around last time, so now that I had to print a new one, I made sure to flip the blade around. Feels more natural in use this way.
