But as it is with cutlery every set has different sizing. \u003cbr\u003eSo after a web search i stumbled over the OpenSCAD from \u003ci\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e@Jamie \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eon Printables. I though this will fit my needs. However, as i printed one or two created models. I realized I need to have a cutout in the middle for better access to the forks etc. \u003cbr\u003eSo I managed to make my first OpenSCAD model adjustment which I present you here for your use.
