Enhancing portability and usability for practical bamboo construction applications through refined slider mechanics and compact design.
Prototype
Iris Mechanism with Gear System
Bamboo holds an irreplaceable position in sustainable construction. Our tool makes joinery faster, more accurate, and accessible.
Reduced from 75mm to 60mm case height. Compact enough for fieldwork and transport.
2mm tube sliders achieve ~4.5% margin of error on 90mm bamboo — acceptable for practical joinery.
Supporting SDG 9 & 12 through locally designed tools and additive manufacturing with recyclable materials.
Explore our step-by-step manual to understand how to use the contour gauge for your bamboo joinery projects.
