I often need to make jumpers to bridge the upper and lower power rails on standard plastic breadboards. Making the sizing and bending just right was hit or miss and frustration prone. I realized this could be solved with 3D printing.

How To Use

  • Insert solid wire (up to 2mm in diameter) all the way into the top "Cut & Strip Marks" chamber

  • Mark the one cut and two strip points using a black fine-point pen or X-acto knife

    • Note: for the black wire, using a fine point black Sharpie will create visible marks

  • Cut the wire at the cut mark

  • Carefully strip the wire ends at the strip marks

  • Place wire onto the "Precision Bends" rail

  • Bend the metal wire ends down

    • Take care not to puncture your fingers with the metal ends

  • Use with your breadboard to bridge the upper and lower power rails
