How to Make a Pikler Triangle STRONGER, SAFER, and CHEAPER (DIY Plans Available) - Pikler 2.0
DOWNLOAD PLANS: gum.co/dAGikY
Stop making Pikler Triangles the old way. I fixed all the things I didn't like about my old Pikler Triangle and made it sturdier, stronger, safer, and less expensive. Now I'm showing you how to do it yourself.
SketchUp Model Included!
MAKE MONEY with a Commercial License! A well-built Pikler Triangle like this one can easily sell for between $150-300 USD. I have a "Commercial License" option (see link above) if you would like to make these to sell to paying customers. You could easily break even with just the sale of just one Triangle. Thank you for supporting my work!
Tools needed:
- Jigsaw
- Drill
- 1" Forstner bit
Materials:
-1x4 and 1x6 boards
-1" dowels
That's about it! Couldn't be simpler!

UPDATE June 2021: I've spent several months rethinking and redesigning this and now I have a new video and new plans available. NEW DESIGN: th-cam.com/video/R3CyxeaJbk0/w-d-xo.html. NEW PLANS: gum.co/dAGikY The design in this video was inspired by Jeremy Young's foldable Montessori climbing frame design. If you haven't seen it already, definitely check it out. I am no longer selling plans for t...
I cannot wait to make this. Thank you!!
Great! Thanks!
Hello, I also just made a phone stand
This looks amazing and somehow uses less tools and materials than other videos. I just built my first workbench yesterday and am so excited to try and make this. Thanks!
Question: why is are my 1" dowel rods so loose in the 1" forstner drilled holes? I'm a beginner and this is perplexing me.
Upon measuring: my 1" dowel is 1/32" too narrow for the 1" holes . . . I bought 1"×48" hardwood dowels. What gives?
alright, only 499 more to go....
Thanks a lot Deserve subscription Wishing you good luck with your family
It looks awesome, im going to make one. Can I hold both of the pieces together when I want to make the dado cuts with my sled? Thanks
I bought the plans and just finished my second one. Both split during or soon after assembly. I was able to recover both by creating some router templates that allow me to rout out a pocket and glue in an insert with grain going in the opposite direction to avoid splitting.
Yikes. How or where did it split? Mine shown in this video is almost 3 years old and is still holding up great.
I wondered if the jaw at the top of the inner leg was susceptible to breaking since it’s parallel to the grain. For that reason, I’m using plywood for the legs.

Hey Peter, couldn't find a way to reach out via email, but I ordered your plans about 45 minutes ago, and haven't received anything. Gumroad charged me, but I haven't got a receipt or plans or anything. From what I could tell, Gumroad got my email right, I just haven't received anything.
It looks awesome nice work!👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I’m going to make a couple for my wife and me😊
Thank you so much I’m making this in technology
Great content... I like the idea of the lock mechanism at the end... I also saw the version 2.0... Do you recommand it after All the time passed and user experiences?!
Yes! I would recommend version 2.0. It is now almost three years old, and still holding up great! Looks and functions just as well as it did on Day 1. The older version (shown in this video) I ended up giving away to a friend. It was nice, but not quite as strong. Go with version 2.0, for sure.
@@PeterAnglea thanks a lot for the answer... Really grateful for this... Warm greetings from ALGERIA
I have a question, i just purchased the older plans with the templates. My question is whether or not the original templates will work with the new plans for the top of the legs?
Hi! If you purchased the Pikler Triangle 2.0 plans, those are the newest and best, not the design shown in this video. The two are not compatible with each other.
I just paid for your download and cannot find where to download them
Found it
Thank you for sharing!
Hi, just bought the plans this looks great. If I want to use slightly wider dowels (wife's preference) will these plans still work? It doesn't seem like it would make a differencebesides of course the material needed for dowels but thought I'd double check before I make a dumb mistake.
Hi! Sure, you can use any size dowel you want. The thicker, the stronger it will be. A 1 inch dowel (which I used) is plenty strong to support lots of weight, as I demonstrated, but you can certainly go thicker - it will just be more expensive.
Hi Peter, Very nice design and great tutorial! I just bought the plans to make one for my 15 month daughter. I’ll use Ash for this project. I saw in the video that the extra piece of wood to make the « head » of the leg is simply glued to the the leg. Have you ever faced mechanical weakness at this junction? Would you recommend using dowel or domino to strengthen the assembly? Thanks for your help and for the plans!
Hi! Using glue alone is fine. A dowel or domino will not add very much extra strength to it. My Pikler Triangle is now almost three years old and still holding up strong.
Like it. Might just do this one and add some felt to the back of it
BRO SOMEONE CLIP THAT
Hi, just see your vid, just awesome design, can you do for Arch Climber/Rocker for next video, maybe 3-in-1 which are the climber that can be pair with pikler triangle, the rocker and table for toddler if not in use. Best regards
This is exactly the phone stand I've been looking for. So now I an make it myself. Thank you
Hello Peter! Great design! Do you have plans in metric system?
Brutal work! Love! what type of wood is?
Poplar
You explain is really great sir.
Amazing work Bro! Thanks for sharing!
Мне понравилась Ваша работа.
I love this! I'm still nervous with the take saw, and this is a nice, simple project to get more comfortable with it. I could even use some of the scrap laying around the garage.
Can you make plans with metric measurements? 😊
Look good. Have you considered an alternate version that secures the charging connector into a stationary position and hides the front part of the wire? I think both would be ideal, the first especially. Seems like you'd want to maybe flatten the bottoms and apply a gripping material so it wouldn't slide though. Just a thought!
I clearly didn’t read the instructions well enough and used only 1x4 inch boards (instead of 1x4 and 1x6) so I just added a third piece like you did in this video. I was concerned with how close that U shaped cut was to the join on the 2nd and 3rd board. Have you found that yours has held up well enough and it wasn’t an issue, does the locking pin help with that? Or would I be better off starting over with the correct size?
Mine is still working great and gets a lot of use! As long as the joint was glued up properly, I wouldn't expect it to be any less strong.
Just bought the plans and built one for my Grandkids. Works great. I was so confused by other people's designs that had all the hardware and screws around the pivot point. This worked great and no screws. Thanks
Thank you for this and the plans! FYI for any Parents out there thinking of attempting this project; Lowes has Poplar 1" dowels, don't buy a 1" forstner bit rather a 25mm bit, Blue bottle of wood glue, make sure you have plenty of 9" + clamps handy if you wish to knock this project out in 1 day, and good luck!
Smart! Semper Fi
This is awesome
I just paid for the plans through paypal, the plans didn't get emailed to me. Instead I got subscribed to gumroad.
Hi Don, so sorry about this. I don't have any record of a purchase from you, otherwise I would send you a refund or try to fix this. I recommend reaching out to Gumroad to see if they can track down the issue and resolve this.
@@PeterAnglea ok I will double check with PayPal and try again if it didn't go through. Thanks for the quick response.
Awesome work! (Although move that car next time a kickback would send the board through your windshield lol)
Haha. True!
I’m going to attach the dowels via wedge mortise and tenon. Does that seem incorrect?
Sounds like a plan. Should work just fine!
I would like to try one, if it is ok I will buy commercial license
Just bought the plans looks great but, may I get the DXF file instead oh the sky from sketchup ? want to try make the legs on the cnc . Thank you
Sorry but I don’t have a DXF file for this, just the SketchUp file, which you are free to manipulate and possibly export your own. I hope it works for you.
The web site won't accept my zip code any suggestions?
Hi William, I saw your sale go through. I assume everything is fine now but let me know if not. Thanks!
@@PeterAnglea it wouldn’t let me use PayPal
Great work!
Love the video! I would be interested in seeing a pikler that can be set to a few different inclines
What a great design!
Maravilloso trabajo felicitaciones por compartir sus videos saludos dé Puebla 🔥 México
Nice video!
I'm following this video to make a triangle for my young niblings. It's rare that I find an instructional video so clear and detailed that I have no questions. Just for reference, I purchased 13 dowels (4ft) and 2 Poplar boards (1inx4inx8ft) at the evil big orange home center for $122 in June 2022. Yes, I realize that you can't quite get four boards of 4ft length from two 8ft boards, but my niece and nephew will never notice half of a kerf!
Looks more practical/simpler than what I've seen elsewhere. I'll give it a go! Thank you, Peter!
Peter, Great job for all the details and explanations of the reasons for doing it your way..
