Description

Bread slicer guide

Made as a rough and ready guide for slicing bread out of a bread maker (Panasonic bread maker, not commercial size loaf). The design will accommodate a medium, large or extra large loaf from the bread maker. Place the “fingers” (what I am calling the guide for the knife) one way for thick slices and the other for thinner slices. There are 4x fingers for each thickness to allow four slices to be cut at once without repositioning the bread. The “thick” side is a 15mm slice of bread. Turn it around for a smaller 12mm thickness of bread. I have found that the 12mm thickness is more than enough for a decent sized piece of bread to toast.

 

Admittedly some refinement is needed but this does the job intended and is easy to print. 

 

Refinement needed: 

  • Walls are all way too thick and thinning would make printing a lot less costly
  • Gaps are made for a standard 3mm thick bread knife. However the space where the bread sits can be too far apart so the bread knife will not have much mobility whilst cutting bread
  • All parts fits inside the base plate. However, if thinning pieces, the base will need to be made slimmer
  • Headboard piece needs to have filleted edges on one side otherwise it is difficult to get out of the base from storage
  • 12mm thickness should be the thickest size. Perhaps the smaller side should therefore be c.9mm

Enjoy this easy print.

The idea is great, but I would hesitate before cutting my bread on 3d printed part - there's enough microplastics in our food, I don't need macroplastics and extra crunchiness in my sandwiches

Thanks for the feedback; in which case feel free not to print it 👍. For the record, I have had zero issues with any plastics getting into my sliced bread whilst using this. The only risk is at the bottom of the bread (I.e., when cutting the bottom crust and onto the board). If you’re that worried, put a wooden chopping board on the bottom of the print.

The letters only should have been 3-4 layers not the 20 that’s wasted so much filament

appreciate the feedback. as mentioned in the description, it all needs thinning down as the whole thing wastes filament as it does not need to be as thick. if you’re worried about the lettering, there is something else wrong
