WHAT'S HERE
--------------------------------------------------------------------
kumiko-paring-jig_body.stl      The jig. Holds a strip at a fixed angle
                                so every chisel cut comes out the same.
kumiko-paring-jig_stopper.stl   The end stop. Sets your strip length.

Default sizing: 177 mm long, 36 mm tall, cuts at 67.5 deg and 45 deg,
for strips up to 12.7 mm wide and 8 mm thick.

Need different numbers? The customizer at michaelkumiko.com/customizer.html
builds this jig to your own strip width and angles, free, in the browser.

PRINT SETTINGS
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Material      PLA or PETG. PETG if you want it to last.
Layer height  0.20 mm
Walls         3 (2 works; 3 holds the channel edge better)
Infill        15% gyroid
Supports      None. Both parts print flat, no overhangs.
Orientation   As oriented in the file. Do not lay the body on its side,
              the channel walls need to print upright.
Brim          Optional. Add one if your first layer lifts.

Print time runs about 1.5-2 hours for the body on a 0.4 mm nozzle.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
USING IT
--------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Drop your strip into the channel.
2. Push it against the stopper so the length is repeatable.
3. Hold the strip down with your off hand, keep the chisel flat on the
   angled face, and pare in from the high side.
4. Take thin passes. Let the jig set the angle, don't steer it.

The whole point is that cut number forty looks like cut number one.
