12mm safety eye

thingiverse

i needed safety eyes for a project and i didnt want to wait ages to get them, and pay more for them than i would have for the yarn! these are 12mm, but you should be able to easily scale them up or down. just scale the eye to the size you want and then apply the same scale to the cap. these are SMALL, but dont let that deter you, you can print these on an fdm printer too. to get that lovely smooth look, just paint the part with a splash of clear fingernail polish! included is a longer shaft eye in case you, like me, are using these on an amigarugi and the yarn is too thick to snap the cap on.
