Preview of Upturned-glass display cloche base
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple
MAIN PURPOSE: Turn a drinking glass into a display dome
A 96 mm plinth with a groove that takes the rim of an upturned drinking glass: any tumbler from 82 to 90 mm across becomes a dust-tight dome over a figure, a pocket watch or a fossil, and the groove stops the glass sliding when the shelf is dusted.

Preview of One-piece stamp tongs
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple
MAIN PURPOSE: Handle postage stamps without touching them
Flat, rounded jaws on a springy one-piece frame: lift stamps by the margin without skin oil or fingernails touching the gum or the perforations, which is how philatelists keep them mint. The jaws have no sharp edges to crease paper.

Preview of Open-book conservation cradle wedges
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple (set)
MAIN PURPOSE: Support old books open without straining the spine
A pair of 20 degree wedges that support each half of an open book from below: the spine is no longer forced flat, so old or tightly bound books can be read, photographed or shown open without cracking. The small lip stops the pages sliding.

Preview of Slide-in double-glass specimen frame
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple
MAIN PURPOSE: Display flat specimens visible from both sides
Sandwich a pressed leaf, feather or banknote between two 2 mm acrylic sheets and slide them into the frame from the open side, where ledges hold them flat: the specimen seems to float, both sides are visible through the window, and it swaps in seconds.

Preview of Backlit sea-glass light tray
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple
MAIN PURPOSE: Display translucent finds lit from below
An LED strip on the floor and a sheet of opal acrylic on the ledge above it: lay out sea glass, agate slices or amber and they glow from inside like stained glass, which shows colours and inclusions no shelf light can. The side hole takes the strip's cable.

Preview of Camera battery caddy with full and flat sides
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple
MAIN PURPOSE: Keep charged and spent camera batteries apart
Two bays for spare camera batteries, engraved FULL and FLAT: put a battery back on the flat side when it runs out and you never grab an empty one on a shoot.

Preview of Product photo light tent frame
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple
MAIN PURPOSE: Diffused lighting box for small product photography
A small light tent for product photos: tape baking paper over the two side windows, shine lamps through them, and curve a sheet of card from the back wall down to the floor for a seamless backdrop.

Preview of Five-inch field monitor sun hood
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple
MAIN PURPOSE: Shade a camera field monitor in daylight
Slides over a 5-inch camera monitor like a tunnel so you can see the picture in bright sun; strap it on through the side slots with a hook-and-loop strip. Print it as shown, then turn it over so the floor becomes the top.

Preview of Record label protector
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple (set)
MAIN PURPOSE: Protect record labels during wet cleaning
Keeps the label dry when you wash a vinyl record: print two, clamp the record between them with a bolt through the spindle hole, and the raised rims seal against the label.

Preview of Kazoo with paper membrane
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple
MAIN PURPOSE: Simple buzzing musical instrument
A square kazoo that really buzzes: stretch baking paper over the round hole with a rubber band, then hum (not blow) into the open end.
