Easy Zipper for Assistive Technology Challenge

My friend, my cousin Juan Luis from Pamplona, Spain has a real problem with his left arm. I've seen him try to open metal zippers over and over again, which got me thinking: why can't he just do it the easy way? That's when EasyZipper was born - it lets you use your teeth or another convenient means to get those stubborn zippers open. The great thing about EasyZipper is that its design makes it fit most standard zippers like a glove. All you need is a cable tie, and voilà! You're good to go. I really hope this thing will be useful for people with limited dexterity or just plain old tired fingers like my cousin. You can find the easy instructions on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqsHwKfUz3w Print Settings: Rafts: Who cares? Supports: Doesn't matter to me Infill: 100% Notes: Be my guest and use 100% infill. The model is so light, you won't save much material or time by not using it, but hey, it's your call!
