Long story short, I never realized an herb stripper was even a thing. Yesterday, while searching for an herb chopper, they popped up.
Now I’m convinced I want one. I read up a little and looked at designs for a bit and designed one and am 3D printing it now.
This is my 3rd rendition of the idea and hopefully the last. This solves a couple of problems. One, I get something I believe will be useful as we continue adding herbs to our food forest. Best of all, I’m making my own.
Two, it will hopefully get Brayzen, the youngest off my back. He has big dreams of being a youtuber and hammers on me fairly often because we don’t have merch..lol
For the uninitiated, merch means merchandise to sell. Granted, there are plenty of other herb strippers for people to choose from on the market.
However, this is the first one that I am aware of that may help fuel the dreams of buying some land and being more of a real homestead.

I’m not the best designer, but I enjoy trying to make something from nothing. I may tinker with it one more time to get a neater looking line up of the holes. Or I may just leave it alone so it doesn’t look like some mass-produced item. What do you think?
While I like the thought of 3D printing these, I may offer some made from wood and some made of metal. It just depends on the amount of interest.
There will also be other products as time goes by, I’m not sure what at this point in time but as we get more independent I’m confident that tools will be created to make our lives better and I’ll more than likely share my new ideas.
Best of luck in your ventures!
