3D Printed Pen/Marker Holder

thingiverse

Many individuals with disabilities such as cerebral palsy are capable of grasping objects in their hands, but struggle with rotating their wrists. This limitation severely hinders their ability to engage in everyday activities like drawing or writing on paper, where the pen typically remains parallel to the surface. Designed specifically for this purpose, this innovative device holds a pen or marker vertically while being held horizontally itself. By simply loosening the thumbscrew, users can easily switch out the pen or marker at will. The device relies on a captive square nut and a thumbscrew to maintain consistent pressure on the marker, ensuring a smooth writing experience. The openSCAD file is fully customizable, allowing users to adjust parameters such as diameter and finger grip position to suit their individual needs.
