This is a jig used to cut 9mm pieces of silicone tube for use with the Silicone Tube bed leveling mod for Prusa MK3 printers. 

The mod is described very well here:

and here:

As always, I have included Fusion 360 source in case you want to modify the design to your needs. Some people use 10mm tubes, but I find that this puts too much pressure on the heatbed, and 9mm gives plenty of adjustment.

NOTE: This jig is a remix of the concept from an original design here:

Many thanks to @Paul_GD on the “The 602 Wasteland” discord for both the idea and the original cutter design.
