Preview of Mycelium brick mould
By Krypto
Complexity
Multi-part assembly
MAIN PURPOSE: Grow a solid brick of mushroom mycelium as a biodegradable building material
Mycelium, the root network of mushrooms, can be grown into solid shapes and is already used for packaging and insulation. Pack this mould with pasteurised sawdust or hemp mixed with oyster mushroom spawn, put the lid on and leave it somewhere dark. In about a week the white mycelium has bound everything into a light, solid brick. Pop it out, bake it at 90 degrees for an hour to stop the growth, and you have a block that is fire-resistant, insulating and fully compostable. The small vents let it breathe.

Preview of Spider-taxi rescue box
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple
MAIN PURPOSE: Catch a spider against the wall and slide a card in to carry it outside
For people who like spiders outside and want them to stay alive. Put the open box over the spider on the wall or floor, slide a postcard in through the slot just under the rim, and it runs along the grooves inside to close the box completely. Carry the spider outside, pull the card and let it go. No squashing, no legs caught under the rim, and you never have to get close.

Preview of Wick Ridge
By Krypto
Complexity
Advanced
MAIN PURPOSE: Humidify a dry room with no power
A passive humidifier that looks like a paper mountain range. Fill the tray with water and drape folded sheets of blotting paper over the seven fins: both ends dip in, the paper wicks water up and the air takes it away, so a dry room by a radiator gets moisture with no power, noise or filter.

Preview of Jar Jacket
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple
MAIN PURPOSE: Turn a reused glass jar into a watertight vase
A fluted sleeve that makes an empty jam jar into a vase. The glass jar inside holds the water, so the print never leaks, and the scalloped outside hides the label marks; wash the jar, keep the jacket.

Preview of Upturn Top
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple
MAIN PURPOSE: Turn an upturned bucket into a side table
A table top for an upturned bucket or planter. Print it, flip it, and the deep skirt drops over the base of a storage bucket, so a tub of blankets or toys becomes a side table with a flat top, and the bucket keeps its storage job.

Preview of Termitary
By Krypto
Complexity
Multi-part assembly
MAIN PURPOSE: Fruit a mushroom grow kit with passive airflow
A fruiting chamber for mushroom grow kits, ventilated like a termite mound. Termites farm fungus inside mounds that breathe by the stack effect; here low slots on the front take in fresh air and high slots at the back let the warm moist air out, so oyster mushrooms get humidity without stale air.

Preview of Darning mushroom with gathering neck
By Krypto
Complexity
Advanced
MAIN PURPOSE: Support fabric while darning holes
Stretch a sock heel or a jumper elbow over the 70 mm face, gather the fabric round the slim neck with a hair tie and weave the darn across a firm, smooth surface. Printed face down, so the darning face comes out glassy and never snags the yarn.

Preview of Button shank spacer fork
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple (set)
MAIN PURPOSE: Sew buttons on with a strong thread shank
Lay the fork across a coat button between its holes and sew over the two tines; slide it out, wind the thread round the slack and you have a proper thread shank, so buttons on thick fabric stop pulling loose and tearing off.

Preview of Soap sliver press mould
By Krypto
Complexity
Medium
MAIN PURPOSE: Press leftover soap slivers into a new bar
Chop the last slivers of soap, damp them with a spoonful of hot water and press them hard into this bar mould: the corner holes let the excess water out, and the slivers dry into one solid, usable bar with SOAP pressed into its face.

Preview of Toilet cistern displacement box
By Krypto
Complexity
Multi-part assembly
MAIN PURPOSE: Save water on every toilet flush
Stand it in the cistern clear of the float and the flush valve, fill it with water or gravel and close the snug lid: every flush now uses about a litre less, the job a brick used to do, but without crumbling grit into the valve.
