Bracelet Bending Block

thingiverse

This is a versatile tool for shaping flat strips of metal into stylish cuff-style bracelets. The larger circles facilitate a wider, middle bend, while the smaller circles introduce precise bends at the ends to secure the bracelet snugly around the wrist. To replicate this design, I scaled it down to match similar products available on Amazon, keeping in mind its considerable size. For my latest project, which involved a narrow ½-inch wide band, I opted for a compact version to significantly reduce printing time. If you're crafting smaller bracelets rather than wider cuffs, consider shortening the tool's components to minimize unnecessary printing.
