Warning: This is an early prototype and a toy project!
This small toy app converts all paths in an SVG file into printable cookie cutter geometry.
Load an SVG file, chose your tessellation level and the desired overall thickness of the cooke cutter. On save the tool generates an OBJ file which can be imported into most commonly used slicers.
Warning: most 3D printing materials are NOT suitable for food use!
Create the desired shape using your favourite SVG drawing tool
Use Custom Cookies to convert the shapes into a printable 3D object. Then use your favourite slicer to create GCode
Finally print and bake!
