Carpal tunnel splint

thingiverse

The carpal tunnel splint is a straightforward 3D printable wrist flexion resisting brace which is minimal in design and contoured precisely to fit snugly around the forearm, wrist, and palm. If you experience recurring bouts of carpal tunnel syndrome pain, this splint effectively prevents wrist forward bending without compromising its compactness. It stands in stark contrast to those bulky over-the-counter wrist supports that weigh heavily on the skin. The design is currently undergoing rigorous testing on my mother who often complains of severe wrist discomfort due to chronic pain issues. Update 2.2 A brand new version, marked as Version 2.2, has just been uploaded for download and can now be printed at your convenience. Two separate designs have been crafted specifically to accommodate right- and left-handed users: 'R' indicates the former while an 'L' label signifies its counterpart for those with left-handed inclinations. I made some deliberate choices in crafting this 3D design that diverged from conventional methods yet paid off beautifully - providing a wrist fit so snugly contoured. In upcoming releases, look forward to additional innovative design options including a range of mesh patterns, a webbed effect, and the integration of smooth edges for comfort as well as added functionality through adjustable Velcro attachments. Happy printing! Print Settings Rafts: • Absolutely No Importance Was Placed On Rafting Supports: • Who Needs Those Anyway? Resolution: The minimum acceptable was used at 0.25 to preserve precision since minute details didn't demand an exorbitant amount of focus on detail in this prototype print job. Infill: Each portion consists of fully infilled components to reinforce stability as the structural core.
