A collection of border pieces to decorate the edge of your GRIB mechanisms. (Note: GRIB drives and encabulator sold separately. Images show typical use cases for border pieces, which requires additional items.)

The edge and corner pieces are modular and can be adapted to any grid shape, including concave corners.

Border pieces also connect up to any barnacles (border modules) such as encabulators, integrating them into the border.

Each edge piece exposes studs on its top surface, allowing you to attach custom labels or other accessories.

contents

This bundle contains:

  • 8x edge pieces (+1 spare)
  • 12x corner pieces (+2 spares)
  • 1 roons label

This is enough to create a full border for a 2×2 grid.

why “barnacles”?

In GRIB, barnacles are simple modules that plug directly into the gear chain, rather than being loaded fully onto a drive.

They are called “barnacles” because they are small things that cling to the side of a larger thing.

open source

If you have a 3D printer, you may be able to make a version of this for free at home.

GRIB is open source. You can download the files and print a drive yourself.

An early access version of GRIB is currently only available to our Kickstarter backers. We expect to fully open-source version 1.0 in late August.

preorder

We’re currently fulfilling the original Kickstarter rewards. The estimated dispatch time for preorders is 7-8 weeks.

Each kit is manufactured in our workshop in Camden Town, London. We use lots of machines that make cool beeping sounds, and finish each kit by hand.

Kits will be dispatched in this order:

  • Kickstarter backers
  • Post-Kickstarter reservations (based on the date the reservation was made)
  • Preorders (based on the date of the preorder)

Kickstarter backers

If you’re a Kickstarter backer (thanks!), please be aware there may be small differences between the original reward tiers and the kits available here on whommart — make sure to check the product description.

consolidating orders

We may be able to bundle your order with your original Kickstarter reward — more info here.
