Gripsy - tool for disabled people

Description

Nov. 25-2014: We Updated The The Files. The Two Main Parts Are Now Symmetrical. So You Can Choose To Print The Part With The Small Grip Twice. The Parts Fit Better Than Version 1. Gripsy Is A Tool To Help People With Limited Hand Function To Perform Daily Tasks. The Tool Is Designed With People Suffering From The Holt-Oram Syndrome In Mind (Most Of The Time They Do Not Have Thumbs), But Can Also Be Used By People Who Don'T Have A Lot Of Strength In Their Upper Extremities. With This Tool It'S Possible To Open Pet-Bottles, Soda Cans, Grab A Small Object Like A Card From A Machine And Turn A Key In A Lock. This Is Version 1. I Printed It Myself And It Works, But The Model Shows Still Some Gaps. Repetier Fixes This When Slicing It With Slic3R. The Big Grip Is Fixed With A M3 Bolt. You Can Design Your Own Grip That Suits Your Need. Beside The Filament (Abs Preferred), You Need A M4-25Mm Bolt, A M3-25 Bolt With A Flat Head Or Allen Key Head And A Spring From A Regular Ball Pen. Be Encouraged To Add Improvements!
