Scharfen Tenderhit Meat Tenderizer - Replacement Blade Guide / Stripper Finger

This is a 3D-printable replacement blade guide (stripper finger / comb element) designed specifically for the Scharfen Tenderhit commercial meat tenderizer machine.

⚙️ Printing & Material Recommendations

⚠️ IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE: Because this part comes into direct contact with food processing equipment (raw meat), please take necessary food-safety precautions.

• Filament Choice: PETG or CPE are recommended over PLA for better toughness, chemical resistance against kitchen cleaners, and better heat tolerance during washing. For advanced users, food-contact compliant filaments or a food-safe resin coating are ideal.
• Infill: 100% Solid Infill (or high wall counts with 50%+ infill) to ensure structural strength under mechanical pressure 
• Supports: print it flat on its side. no supports needed
