Pizza+Cutter+Design

When you have looked at other pizza cutters and decided what particular features you want for your own cutter, you could sketch out some shapes and styles before moving on to sketch modeling: this involves using easy to mould materials such as cardboard or foamex to create a prototype. link to Its a pizza cake



This is my pizza cutter. The handle is made from acrylic, and features the three colours: green, white and red, of the italian flag. It is still in the manufacturing stage so its a little rough around the edges. I could have improved the shape and the finished dimensions of the handle if I had drawn the image first in Corel Draw and exported this file to a laser cutter. The picture on the right shows the inside of the handle. The white acrylic is two thin layers, cut out down the centre to allow for positioning of the handle support. The support is made from 5mm clear acrylic, riveted to the 50mm diameter wheel. I found that the larger wheel is more effective at cutting the pizza than a smaller one.
