Very nice design, thanks for sharing.
May I ask if the GEM blade here is held via magnets?

I have downloaded your files and am actually looking to have this printed soon locally.
And how aggressive is this razor actually?

The blade is pushed up against the top and onto two registration tabs when you screw in the handle. In some of the pictures on this thread, you can see how the thread on the handle and top cap lock the blade in place. I would say it shaves similar to your typical 1912 with a small handle but with a much lighter feel. And as far as GEMs go, I would say it's somewhere in the middle maybe between normal and aggressive. Every printer is different, so yours might be different than mine. Your feedback would be much appreciated. Thanks

Thank you.
I will report back as soon as I have something new.

Lol... Let's make it official. "Beta testers needed for this one of a kind two-piece, no moving parts, minimalist GEM style SE compact razor".

I'll upload the files on Thingiverse later today after a small modification to the handle.

Should be with me soon:

Awesome! Your feedback will be much appreciated.

You shall have feedback.
I'm afraid the Slantibartfast might have to come first. It's part of the same order.

I've also requested a quotation on the GEM design earlier today, from a local printing co.
Resin, 0.03mm layer height, high material density.
So I'm expecting a price and we'll see how this develops.

I'm printing on the cheap.
The Min-GEM razor (does it have a proper name?), a Slantibartfast with blade cover and a round thing for making coffee...

Total cost including shipping £8.90
At some point I'll have a bunch of things printed in resin though.
(Except for the round thing for making coffee)

That is an astonishing price isn't it?

It is.
If only they'd do resin for that price

 

[Grarea]

What is the difference for resin?
Did you get a quote for that batch?

I just had a look for just the two razors...
...about £25 shipped from a different supplier.
Not too bad.

I could save £2.70 (and a lot of time) if the vendor would offer free local pickup.

 

[Grarea]

Agreed. Not too bad.
But well worth waiting until you are set for the final result.
