3D Printed
This jig is produced using additive manufacturing (3D printing), a modern process that offers unique benefits for this tool:
- Precision and Customization: 3D printing allows for intricate, custom geometries that ensure a highly accurate and repeatable fit for your specific zipper pulls, something often difficult and expensive to achieve with traditional methods.
- Durable Materials: We print this jig in durable PLA (Polylactic Acid) plastic. This material provides excellent strength and rigidity for repetitive use without the heavy weight of metal alternatives.
- Lightweight & Ergonomic: The layered construction results in a lightweight tool that is easy to handle and maneuver, reducing user fatigue during long crafting sessions.
- Sustainable Choice: Our PLA material is a biodegradable, plant-based plastic derived from renewable resources like corn starch, offering a more eco-friendly option for your crafting tools.
