Being lazy again I designed myself a wood chamfering tool. There is a bunch of these on the market, but none of them use utility knife blades and they are usually unnecessarily expensive. So this is the cheap, fast, and easy alternative to anything out there.

 

Press hard to make a chamfer at once or softly to chamfer a 90 degrees edge easily. The final chamfer is about 2-3mm high. It cuts down post-processing times significantly, with no filing, sanding, etc., just simply drag the tool across the edge, the chamfer is not very deep, so it feels like sharpening a pencil.

 

This design uses:

1x trapezoid blade (Milwaukee, Stanley, etc.)

1x M3x16 hex screw (blade stop)

1x M3 square nut (for a blade stop screw)

 

Choose any desired infill, number of perimeter, or layer height, it should work nicely, it doesn't have any tight tolerances for the blade. Insert the hex nut into the little pocket, insert a blade, and screw everything together with the screw.

 

Enjoy it as I did today! :)
