Really nice. I take it you 3d printed the copies of the knives? Trying to figure something out for mine.

I put them in my tool cabinet. I plan to put the table insert, the molding head and the arbor in the same drawer.

I drew out the profiles for each cutter and then extruded them 1.588mm above the lid. Then I pause the print and switch the black filament to the white filament for the color change.

Ah ha! Silly me, I still revert to old school gluing something on to the lid! I've had my 3d printer for two years and have yet to try it!

Well if you ever get it up and running let me know and I'll send you the files to print them.
