Cradle ring
Holds the jar at the heart of the system.
FROM SEED TO SYSTEM
Small parts.
Big growth.
A familiar mason jar. A thoughtfully designed stand. Sprouter is a 3D-printable project exploring a simpler way to rinse, tilt, and drain your sprouts.

THE EVERYDAY, REIMAGINED01 / CONCEPT
A FEW PARTS. A SHARED PURPOSE.
Six designs, working together.
A cradle ring, a base frame, two pivot pins, two retaining clips, an indexing pin, and a drain tray. Eight printed pieces designed around a wide-mouth quart mason jar and mesh lid.
Base frame
Gives the cradle a stable place to stand.
Pivot pins
Two small connectors for the intended tilt motion.
Drain tray
Collects water beneath the jar.
THE IDEA IS SIMPLE
Rinse. Tilt. Repeat.
A hands-on first phase, with a path toward automation as the design develops.
Give them a rinse
Add water through the mesh lid and gently swirl the jar.
Let gravity help
The cradle is designed to tilt the jar mouth-down, letting water flow into the tray below.
Make room for growth
Return to the rinse-and-drain routine as your sprouts develop.
GROW THE NEXT ITERATION
A project taking shape.
Sprouter is a prototype in development. Project members can explore the designs, assembly notes, and bill of materials to help refine the build.
