- This is a new, easy, straightforward way to convert any solid image into a 3d printing cookie cutter. Instead of using a graphic editor to create an outline for your cookie cutter in this video, I teach you how to use your slicer, Cura, PrusaSlicer, Simplify3d, or others to create the outline used in 3d printed cookie cutters. The video also includes simple instructions on how to use ThinkerCAD to the flat image and convert it to a 3d design.

Thank you for the eductation. I am new to 3D printing and it has been frustrating. Your videos are a huge help. You talk slow enough as not to shotgun knowledge yet fast enough to stay focused and you are not assuming everyone is experienced. Please continue your efforts. Again, thank you.
Thanks for the kind words

Hello,
First off, thank you for making this video. It's very helpful and _not_ too long, which is great.
Could you possibly help me with some suggestions on a good starter 3D printer?
I will likely only use it for small things (mini items my daughter wants to learn to make), and cookie cutters being the largest item.
Thank you so much for your help!
_(and video)_
Take Care!

@@goose7574 I’m new to 3d printing as well. In fact my printer arrived 2 days ago. I bought the sovol sv01 pro. I didn’t know what to expect, but it was incredibly quick and easy to assemble, level and print with! I’m hooked 😊
Thanks for this great instruction. Can you do a video on making hollow rolling pin with texture on the outside so it can be rolled into clay to leave a pattern? Thank you.
So fun, can’t wait to give this a try. My printer arrived two days ago. I appreciate the way you teach, and look forward to watching more of your videos. Thank you
I love how you teach with such enthusiasm! Great tips thank you!
I learn so much from your videos. You are a wonderful teacher! Thank you for all your work.
Love this video! I almost went crazy creating my cookie cutter. I‘m new to this and this video saved me so much trouble.
I received a 3D printer for a Christmas, birthday, and retirement gift. I am so happy about this video! Thank you for the easy step-by-step instruction and clear explanations. You are an amazing teacher!
A very informative video. Thank you for making it extremely simple and easy to make cookie cutters! Now I can make some of my own and give them as funny gifts. (I can now also make biscuit cutters too). Now the possibilities are endless. I'm one of those that is a multi crafter and I use SVGs all the time. Thank You so much for this video!
Thank you for your video, very education, slow and specific in explaining on the how to! Thank You and God Bless
You explained this so well and made it so simple. Great job
Glad you enjoyed it!
New to 3D printing. Great video explained in layman’s terms. Thank you.
This was extremely helpful! Thank you for the positive delivery. I'm excited!
Thank you Mr Rogers! Great video! Just what I needed.
I enjoy watching your videos. I think its your upbeat candor and smiling advice. Keep up the good videos.
Thanks
Thanks for making it so easy!
amazing I never thought of doing it this way, I had only done it in the vector stage of drawing
Thank you!!! I will be watching all your videos.
Yeah! I struggled to make a cookie cutter and finally gave up. Now I can go back to the drawing board and use this technique. Thank you!
Sir, not only are you like watching Bob Ross which is a compliment, but you totally helped me with this easier way to make cutters. My sister owns a cookie shop and she is always asking me to make her cutters. Now with this much easier way I can make her whatever she wants. That deserves a subscribe from me. :) I am also a youtuber but have a long way to go to get to your subs. Congratulations Sir.
I am looking at getting a 3D printer to make polymer clay cutters and I have to say that this was the easiest and most enjoyable video I have seen so far. I do have a question, when you are able to see the final image I did not notice a flat side and a sharp side. Do you have a video that shows how to make a flat and sharp side? Thank you so much for your time and expertise to teach us newbies.
Thank you. This helped me way more then you know.
Wow, awesome class, thanks thanks for all.
Thanks for the information and your time to teach us. Have a Happy Thanksgiving.
Same to you! Thanks for the comment.
OMG!!! you are awesome!! you save me so much time doing it!!! thank you!!!
Thanks for another great video.
this could have been a 3 minute video but im still glad you made it because I it helped me with the slicer settings :)
So simple... so smart!
Thanks
Thanks once again. Your teaching is amazing! I have since taught my brother half way around the world how to use a 3d printer. Wishing you a lovely holiday.
This is great! Thank you!
You're very welcome! Thanks for the comment. Please share the video with everyone you know that may find it interesting. Feel free to post to other groups.
Very interesting 👌
Thanks again!
My pleasure!
Many thanks. It works fine.
Does anyone else known the material but stay for the teaching therapy?
😊
Thanks. I try to teach vs lecture. Too many TH-cam videos seemed focused on entertainment. I try to focus on teaching.
This is so obvious I feel dumb not realizing it was this easy!
Love your videos!
Thank you!
I followed all your steps precisely, and ended up with a perfect Turkey Cookie Cutter, then saved the CURA settings to “cookie cutter profile”. Now to print it, and make some cookies!
Great video as always. I have a question about your Cura settings, what was your quality set at and how do you get the colours of the model to show red (outside) and green (inside)? Many Thanks
Thank you so much Irv! :))
My pleasure! Thanks for the comment.
Awesome video going to have one ready when we get our printer tomorrow .. But how do we put an outer edge on to grab on to it?
Too bad that uploading an image is not possible here, I saw the previous video on this and used it to make a template for a led holder on a SIM racing wheel in the same form as the cover it replaced, turned out great! Still watched your new video till the end though, you have a very comfortable voice that I enjoy listening to, even when doing other things at the same time :-)
Head over to forum.MakeWithTech.com which is a forum for my viewers where you can post images.
Hello, thanks for the info, really good and clear. I try to make 3d cutters for polymer clay and always have the same problem double walls, when you print the cutter into the clay you don´t have a solid wall you have 2 very thin walls, and I need only one to make a clear cut. Can you tell me what I´m doing wrong, or if this ever happen to you? thanks and greetings from Spain.
Thanks for making this soooo easy Irv! Great idea! What about handles? A follow up video maybe? 😉 Have an awesome Thanksgiving this Thursday! 🦃🍗🍗
Handles for what?
@@MakeWithTech to hold the cookie cutters. If I knew how I'd send you a picture of what I'm talking about, that is if you don't understand what I mean now. 😉
Thank you so much for this!! Now my other problem, how do you create a stamp???
Very well done, but I have a thought that might make this even easier. Could you not once you have your image in Tinkercad just make a duplicate of the same image. Then shrink that image down and place on top of the original. Then use the hole feature in Tinkercad to hollow out the image to the size you want. Then export image to your slicer and just print it with no adjustments in Cura?
This will not work for any image that is not perfectly symmetric. Try it. You need a CAD style outline tool which tinkercad does not have.
I spend two hours trying that yesterday.. doesnt work
Adding to this, you can make a lip to stabilize the outline by playing with brim or raft settings in cura.
Good idea
@@MakeWithTech i always make an offset of 1mm of the drawing and then an offset of 4mm of the drawing,the 4mm i extrude3mm high and the figure(with 1mm ofset) itself about 15mm,makes perfect strong cutters that are sturdy no matter what size,i made pretty detailed ones as well this way,they work perfect,so brim or raft does not matter,i do not use those ever!
@@davidhoogewijs1718 Oh man, I really wish I understood what you said here. Getting the lip on my cutters is exactly what I'm trying to do, and having strong cutters that will last is also something I'm interested in.
@@Nyopanpopan ,sorry for that 😄,i get the lip on in fusion360, inventor or solidworks as i use these cad programs a lot to design and make my files to print. first i make a sketch off the desired form, then you select the sketch outerline and make a 1,2mm offset outwards and make a 5mm offset outwards. extrude that 1.2mm profile 15mm up, extrude the 5mm profile up 3mm and done you have a lip that makes your cutter very stable, i even use them for cutting in bread
happy thanksgiving to you & your family!
would using vase mode / Spiralize mode to do this make any difference?
Spiralize would result in a single line wall which I do not think would hold up to repeated use.
@@MakeWithTech thankyou
Great
Is there a way I can add an edge to these cookie cutters? I do polymer clay earrings and I love this technique but to give my clay a clean cut I need edges. Thank you in advance.
I know this is an older video, but I just found it and I am so excited to try it out. However, I have the layer view on Cura--and it looks exactly like what you have here. I'm ready to save it to send it to my printer. However, when I save it, it saves as a solid shape instead of with the settings I put in. Do you have an recommendations for what step I am missing.
Are you slicing in vase mode?
Hello, is it possible to 3d print molds for chocolate or fondant? If so, would you be able to post a tutorial?
that was interesting
Does cookie cad work the same and what 3D printer would you recommend? I just want it to make cookie cutters.
My svg file is 442kb. It seems to have converted successfully but tinker cad times out before the file opens.
Even at 300 by 152 mm it won’t open.
Should I make the file 100kb or less?
Your videos have taken my understanding of 3D printing from CIB(complete ignorant bastard) to successfully making 3d images; and manipulating them to the size I need.
Thank you
Sincerely
Jim Muscato
Is it possible to adjust the height setting? 10mm isn't enough and when my print is finished it's only about 7mm. Can you help? Total beginner here!
How do you put a lip on the top of the cookie cutter?
How do I make an articulated cutter, eyes, mouth, head? with all separate pieces ?
I am just beginning to use my 3D Printer. I notice once my first object was finished it had a thin base to it, which popped out the actual cookie cutter. Just wondering if this is normal as it seems like it is a waste of the filament.
We are making cookie cutters but the Cura program won't allow us to adjust the wall thickness. What are we doing wrong?
How well did the Turkey's legs come out when cutting the cookies?
Poorly. Too thin.
@@MakeWithTech I suppose that's one thing to be careful of when choosing a drawing that will work well as a cookie cutter.
Yep
I've heard that the lead in your brass nozzle can be dangerous when printing things that touch food. Is that a 'myth'?
Brass contains lead which is harmful. So out of an abundance of caution you could switch to a steel nozzle. However, just an observation not a recommendation. You are using a cold cookie cutter on cold dough. The cookie cutter will be in contact with the dough for a very short period of time. So I think it would be interesting for someone to do a scientific study measuring if any lead, or an unhealthy amount of lead, even leaches into the dough. If any knows of a study like this please post it here.
@@MakeWithTech I wasn't too concerned myself, just curious on your thoughts. Thanks for the quick reply! There is likely more lead in common everyday food products, than you get from a 3d printed cookie cutter :)
I think you are probably correct.
Lol that triangle Turkey is NSFW.
Yep. You can open up any stl file in meshmaker to see how the triangles can be used to model anything.

The only problem is you get a floating turkey with no legs cookie.😁🤔👍
Yep. I was too lazy to find another picture or edit the picture.
Mistakes : a lot of people
At the same time
Thank you very much
Is the fault of mi celular.
Sorry.
The problem is that FDM prints aren't food safe.
She-Ra? Princess of Power?
You bet. Just ask her.
If you write subtítulos in Spanish, you would win a lot os people.
And st the same time, wecould improve our english, and understand you.
Thank you Bety much de antemano.
Of course you did not mention about using a steel nozzle because a brass nozzle will leave tiny traces of lead in the plastic which will end up in the cookie..
**SMH**
Way too much waffle.
