Clothespin Button Presser

thingiverse

I designed this based on a plastic clothespin I found at work. I modified the top end to be longer and added a component to be able to apply constant pressure for a button that can be released with minimal effort. This was a quick design for a therapy session involving a Pictionary air game. I am sure there are probably better solutions for this but we needed something that allowed constant pressure to be applied to the button while drawing with people who had impaired hand and arm movement/sensation. I printed the object and then took the spring out of an old pen and trimmed it down to size to fit in between the two prongs on the end pieces.
