Day 15 - Toast pliers

Sometimes you work all night to make a letter opener and then the files won't download.  And then you make some Toast Pliers, designed by r4ph on Thingiverse.

Settings: Afinia at .25mm on "fast", with the model scaled to 80%; printing took about 27 minutes.

Technical notes:  ABS plastic isn't technically FDA food-safe, but that isn't really the same as being food-UN-safe. Plus this is just for briefly picking up hot toast so I think we will all be fine.
