Preview of Pantograph Arm
By Krypto
Complexity
Medium (set)
MAIN PURPOSE: Copy and enlarge drawings with a linkage
The bar of a printable pantograph, the drawing copier: bolt four into a parallelogram, pin one corner to the board, follow a picture with a pointer at one joint and a pencil at the other draws it larger. Eight holes at 30 mm pitch let the joints move for 2x or 3x copies; print two at full and two at half width.

Preview of Causeway
By Krypto
Complexity
Advanced
MAIN PURPOSE: Sort knitting needles and hooks by length
A stand for knitting needles and crochet hooks built like the Giant’s Causeway. Five hexagonal basalt columns step down from 200 to 40 mm, so long straight needles go in the tall column and double points, cables and hooks in the shorter ones, each sorted by length and in reach.

Preview of Frustule
By Krypto
Complexity
Multi-part assembly
MAIN PURPOSE: Keep sewing needles and pins in a slim case
A needle case shaped like a diatom. Diatoms live in glass boxes of two halves, one sliding over the other like a pill box; this lanceolate case does the same with a snug telescoping lid, and a central nodule divides sewing needles from pins.

Preview of Hoop Cradle
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple
MAIN PURPOSE: Stand a finished embroidery hoop on a shelf
A stand that shows off finished embroidery in its hoop. The 80 mm foot stays flat on a shelf while two jaws grip the bottom of the hoop rim in a 12 mm slot, so a 10 to 25 cm hoop stands upright like a framed picture. Print one per hoop and change the display with the seasons.

Preview of Wraps-per-inch yarn gauge
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple
MAIN PURPOSE: Identify the weight of an unlabelled yarn
Wind an unlabelled yarn round the stick between the notches, side by side without stretching, and count the wraps: 1 inch or 2 inches gives the WPI that tells lace from DK from chunky. Leftover and hand-spun yarn can be matched to a pattern without guessing.

Preview of Band-weaving rigid heddle
By Krypto
Complexity
Medium
MAIN PURPOSE: Weave narrow bands and straps by hand
A Sami-style heddle with nine slots and eight holes: thread the warp alternately and lift or lower the heddle to open the two sheds, weaving narrow bands, straps and belts on the lap with the warp tied to a belt. Seventeen warp ends make a 2 to 3 cm band.

Preview of Paper bead rolling fork
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple
MAIN PURPOSE: Roll paper strips into jewellery beads
Slip the narrow end of a paper triangle into the slit, turn the handle and the strip winds into a tight bead around the 7 mm tine; dab glue on the tail and slide the bead off. Magazine pages become jewellery beads without the strip unwinding from a cocktail stick.

Preview of Pottery level-line scribing stand
By Krypto
Complexity
Medium
MAIN PURPOSE: Scribe level lines round pots on a banding wheel
Push a pencil through one of three pairs of holes so its tip touches the pot, then turn the banding wheel: the line comes out perfectly level all the way round, ready for wax resist, a glaze dipping line or a decoration band. The foot behind the tower stops it tipping.

Preview of Finger-worn jump-ring opener
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple
MAIN PURPOSE: Open jump rings with one pair of pliers
An open ring worn on the index finger with two slots on its crown: hold a jump ring in one slot and twist it open sideways with pliers in the other hand. One tool replaces the second pair of pliers, and the twist keeps rings round instead of pulled apart.

Preview of Hand-knit sock blocker
By Krypto
Complexity
Simple (set)
MAIN PURPOSE: Shape hand-knitted socks while they dry
A flat foot form, 220 mm from heel to toe: slip a freshly washed hand-knit sock over it and let it dry, and the sock keeps an even shape and opens up its lace or colourwork pattern. Hang it by the hole while it dries; print two for a pair.
