3D Printed Leg Cookie Cutter

This is where a couple of my hobbies have come together in a unique way.

My daughter pointed out a recipe for a Christmas cookie that resembles the famous lamp from the movie "A Christmas Story".


In the recipe, (here) they provide a link to a stencil to use when cutting out the leg shapes for the cookies.


That struck me as something that could be done better with a cookie cutter. Since I recently acquired a 3D printer and have gained some very modest 3D modelling skills, I thought I could make a cookie cutter that filled the bill - it is the exact same size and shape as the stencil that is provided in the recipe.

Here is what I came up with:




And as a gift to you, here is the 3D model so that you can print out a cookie cutter too!

Here is the link to it on Thingiverse.com : Leg Lamp Cookie Cutter

Or if you want to simply buy two already printed, send me an email or visit ebay (link coming soon) and buy a set.

Happy Holidays!

      Sorry I did not see your comment until now. Yes it is the exact same size. I can drop one in the mail for you, but I am afraid it will not get there until after Christmas. Send your address to matthew.c.sargent at gmail dot com.

    Hi all, I have gotten a few requests for the cutters and so I will probably setup a shop or something to make it easier to get them out to you all. I will post a location when I get it done. In the meantime, here is a video of my printing printing off a couple of the cutters. https://youtu.be/ZBe3VCIx2JQ
