Hoop Formers - Square
ABOUT: Blackbird & Violet Shape Cutters are 3D printed from PLA, a biodegradable plastic.
Their cutting edge is approx. 0.4mm & base is 2-3mm to support an easy cut-out.
FINISH: All efforts are taken to reduce any bumps created by the printing process, however sometimes some slip through. These are light & can be easily removed during your sanding process.
COLOUR: Print colour varies & you may receive a different colour to that pictured or a mix of colours.
Shape Cutters are heat sensitive. They are formed by melting PLA to then cool into their shapes & such can be undone the same way - they don't like heat over 50 degrees or prolonged exposure where heat can build up.
Do not:
Leave cutters in direct sunlight, near heat sources, in your car on a hot day or put in the dishwasher.
Do:
Clean with warm, soapy water & a soft tooth brush.
Wipe between uses with a baby wipe, rubbing alcohol or similar.
Store:
A cool space is ideal, such as drawers, stacked containers. Pegboards are great however do ensure the sun magnified through a window doesn't hit them!
We only post to Australia, New Zealand, USA & Canada.
Apologies to our EU customers but recent changes have made it near impossible for small businesses to legitimately send into Europe. Same with UK post brexit 😢
