Learn how to use completely free software, GIMP and MatterControl, to produce custom cookie cutters.

This video begins by describing what makes a good cookie cutter and how to design them. Then it suggests a source of free art you can use to make cookie cutters and walks the viewer through the process of editing the cookie cutter image, transforming the flat image into a 3d shape, and removing excess material from the cutter.

The open source image editing tool Gimp and the open source 3d printer slicer and utility MatterControl are both demonstrated in this video.
