I-Cord Maker

This is a knitting cord maker made with three CSM Cylinder needles -- the same ones that are used by JeepingJohnny's Circular Sock Machine and many other CSMs.

I-Cord is very easy to make and can be used for all types of drawstrings, handles, edges or decorations.

Features

  • Rounded -> easy to grip and work with

  • Needles protrude only by 2.5cm -> yarn doesn't slide too far back & the needles don't bend much

  • Wedges & press-fit for installing & holding the needles without glue

Needles used

  • #7 style 12 gauge cylinder needle used by Legare-style or Auto Knitter knitting machines

  • You can also use a "Leva 58.119 T01" needle (these are easier to buy in Europe)

Printing & Assembly

This consists of four different parts: One main handle and three wedges to hold the needles in place.

  • All parts are in printing orientation.

  • I printed with:

    • PLA

    • .2mm layer height

    • 4 wall loops

    • Arachne wall generator (because of the small wedges)

  • Depending on your printer and accessories, you might also want to use:

    • A brim for the main handle

    • A scarf seam to make the Z-seam less visible

The needles need to sit quite snugly in the slots; I used a hammer to roughly place the needles, then a screwdriver tip to get them slightly further in and finally the wedges to hammer both needles and wedges firmly into place (with padding below the tool and between wedges and hammer).

If the needles are too loose, try increasing the height of the wedges or slightly squashing the model -- or just use glue ;)

Modifications

This is an OpenSCAD model, so you can play around with it and change the dimensions or shape if you like. It uses the BOSL2 library, so you'll need to install this to work with the model. The model includes an svg for the needle cutouts, which needs to be placed alongside the model.
