Before you use 3D-printed objects...

You should not use 3D-printed chopsticks in real eating situations, without understanding food-grade filaments and food-safe coatings. Make sure you read information about the topic on this page, before you attempt to use 3D-printed marcosticks to eat anything. We recommend that you only rehearse the Standard Grip with printed marcosticks, if you do not know how to make them safe for actual eating.

This page lists 3D models of training, ergonomic and helper marcosticks that you can download and 3D-print. For a summary discussion of these models, please see: Training Marcosticks That Work.

Utility patent applications for these training marcosticks have been filed. The ergonomic chopsticks and training chopsticks have been granted patents. A few specific models were also granted as design patents. But we are making all models free for everyone to print on their own, as long as you follow the Mark-and-go license. You may upload these models to online model repositories, but only if you clearly label these as Marcosticks, as the license stipulates. You may even make them in bulk, and sell them at profit, without paying marcosticks.org any royalty fees. Again, make sure you follow the Mark-and-go license, for commercial deployment. See MAG FAQs.

These 3D-printable marcosticks are not meant to be used for eating, right off the print bed. They are good for practicing the Standard Grip. If you plan to eat with them, do so at your own risk, after consult these guides:
