I love this! Free cat scratchers might not seem like they have much value, but has anyone seen the price of those ready-made things?! They're pushing $20 for a large-ish flat scratcher at lower volume places like TSC, but Target isn't much better, still $10 for a 10" x 18" flat cheapy.

Down with bougie cat cardboard!!!

I have used something like that. The blade dulls pretty quickly and it is a lot of work. I got 2 or 3 usable cat scratchers out of one blade.

Given that one cat scratcher cost something like 2,50€, it simply wasnt worth it for me.

While you studied the catch scratcher, I studied the blade.

I was able to get 4 or 5 usable cat scratchers out of one blade.

That looks a lot easier than gluing a stack of boxes together and cutting off slabs with a bandsaw like I was planning.

I guess this is my excuse to finally finish calibrating my new extruder setup.
