Design preview. Rendered from the file, not a photo.
This model is not currently offered as a verified ready to buy print.
What it does
- Grips food securely so you can flip and turn items without two forks
- Slides onto your fork handles in seconds, letting you work faster in the kitchen
- Made from flexible ABS plastic so it bends with your forks and lasts longer
- Custom-fit to your fork size, so it works with what you already own
Turn two forks into tongs. This simple 3D-printed clip slides over your fork handles and holds them together, giving you tongs that grip like the real thing.
Your fork handles need to be 16.7mm wide and 2.2mm thick for this design to fit. If your forks are different sizes, reach out and we can customize it for you. Just share your fork's width and thickness and we'll print a version that works.
The ABS plastic we use bends slightly so it moves with your forks without breaking. Keep your favorite forks and skip buying another kitchen tool you don't need.
