Weaving pick-up stick STL: Create a Custom-Size 3D Model
Create a custom-size weaving pick-up stick STL for your own 3D printer. Check the model controls, measure the fit and buy the generated digital file.
Flat pick-up stick for selecting warp ends and opening a small shed by gently turning it on edge. Both ends taper over 18 mm to blunt tips 1.2 mm thick. Choose a length exceeding the weaving width with room to hold both ends. For small hand looms under light warp tension. It does not carry weft yarn and is not a shuttle. Print flat and carefully smooth all edges to prevent snagging fine threads. Adjustable dimensions: Overall length: 80–220 mm; Middle width: 10–30 mm; Middle thickness: 2–5 mm.
With the Weaving pick-up stick with two rounded tapered ends template, you can turn those measurements into a custom-size STL. Review controls such as overall length, middle width, middle thickness, check your model in the preview and choose the digital file. You buy the generated STL and print it on your own 3D printer, using your preferred filament and slicer settings.
Measurements for your weaving pick-up stick STL
The product page exposes the following useful geometry controls. Work from your measured parts and check the displayed units and the preview before entering final values.
| Model control | What to check |
|---|---|
| Overall length | Check both endpoints of the named feature, including its working reach or engagement. |
| Middle width | Measure across the named feature and allow space for the neighbouring parts. |
| Middle thickness | Measure between the two relevant faces and check fit in any receiving slot. |
Confirm the working geometry before buying the file
Compare the pictured shape with the actual task, not only the product name. Mark which faces touch other objects, which parts need to move and which pieces are supplied separately. The model controls change an existing design; they do not automatically add a feature that the template does not include. Check the complete motion or assembly space in the preview before choosing your final dimensions.
Configure the model, buy the STL and print locally
- Open the weaving pick-up stick product page and compare the model preview with your application.
- Enter the relevant measurements. Use the units displayed beside each input; convert inch measurements before using a millimetre field.
- Review the complete geometry and keep a record of your parameter values. Check small openings, mating features and remaining wall thickness.
- Choose the digital STL purchase option and review the current price and order details before payment.
- After receiving the STL, open it in your slicer, confirm the imported dimensions and inspect the layer preview before printing.

Check a first print before making more
A CAD dimension and a printed dimension can differ. Print a fit sample or one prototype before making a batch, and check the features that contact other parts. Choose print orientation, supports and material for the actual geometry and application. There is no universal clearance or print profile that guarantees the fit on every machine.
Before you choose your STL
Why configure the model instead of scaling a download?
Uniform scaling changes all dimensions together. Here you can work with the available controls, including overall length, middle width, middle thickness, and check the result before purchase. Keep your input values for later revisions: the downloaded STL contains the final mesh, rather than the original parametric editing history.
What do I buy?
Select the digital STL option for the file you will print yourself. Review the current price and selected configuration before paying. Ordering a finished print is a separate option.
Make the next print fit your project
Have your measurements ready? Open the weaving pick-up stick template, adjust the model and inspect the preview. When the geometry matches what you need, choose your STL and take it to your own printer.
