A complete set of splicing needles (fids) designed for real rope work—perfect for creating clean, strong splices on braided lines.

This set includes the most useful sizes: 4,6 and 8 mm, covering a wide range of rope diameters commonly used in sailing, rigging, camping, and DIY applications.

Inspired by professional tools, these needles replicate the core functionality of commercial splicing fids: guiding the rope inside itself to create strong, reliable splices without weakening the line. Splicing preserves much more rope strength compared to knots, making it the preferred technique for serious users.

💡 Why this tool matters
Professional splicing needles (like Selma sets) are considered a must-have for rope work, but they can be quite expensive for a simple tool. 
With this model, you can print your own full set in a short time and at a fraction of the cost.

⚙️ Features

✔ Designed for real splicing (not decorative)
✔ Fast print – ready in no time
✔ Lightweight but strong
✔ Multiple sizes in one set
✔ Compact and easy to store

🪢 How it works

Like professional fids, the needle allows you to insert and guide the rope inside its own braid, making clean and secure splices easier and faster. Many commercial designs use a hollow structure to pull the rope through efficiently.

🎯 Perfect for:

• Sailors & rigging work
• Paracord and braided rope
• Camping & outdoor gear
• DIY and makers

💸 Save Money

A commercial set can cost 30–50€ or more, while this version can be printed for just a few cents in material.
