3D Printed Croissant Cutter

I've recently taken up the pastime of baking bread and (puff) pastry.
A few days ago was only the second time ever for me that I attempted to make croissants and some danish rolls.
The dough took 3 days to make, but it turned out to be really worth the time and effort.

To cut croissants quickly, reliably and accurately this time I decided to design and print my own rotary croissant cutter.
It's based off the classical triangular croissant shape and includes the cut at the triangle base to create a small air pocket that helps to evenly distribute the heat in the center of the croissant.
The classical size of a croissant is 10 x 21 cm, however with my 3D printer's maximum z height of 206.5mm I was limited to a triangle height of 'just' 203mm.
This didn't stop me from baking some really great croissants.
