You’ve designed a niche solution to a problem that doesn’t exist.
Use a box knife. Or, for a more versatile tool, get a Morakniv Companion.
I mean that’s kinda the whole deal with 3d printing, it’s useful for really niche applications where you can just add a small amount of convenience to your life.
Someone else commented about this being good for school kids so they can safely make cat scratchers to donate to animal shelters, and as a cat owner with a constant pile of recycling I can see this being actually useful if I wanna avoid spending $20-$40 on one of those fancier cardboard cat scratchers from Target or whatever.

Is it? All I ever request to be printed is the proprietary part that prematurely broke as it was designed to do.

Instead of teaching them to use scissors? We’re raising a generation that can’t think or do for themselves. They’re reliant upon consumption.

As an adult you think it’s more useful than a box knife? It’s not even going to be faster than a box knife with straight edge. And, why do you need a product to pet your cat?
Boomer posting
“Kids today!!!”
You don’t have to be a Boomer to be boomer posting.
“Kids today” is an illustrative phrase, not a literal one.
People have been interested in new gadgets for all of human history, no matter the cost or utility. Acting like something changed is boomer posting.
People have been interested in useless gadgets since capitalism has mandated perpetual increase in consumption. It’s now so bad that the solution to all problems is needless consumption.
But, neolibs gonna’ neolib until they can’t afford their filament.
