Finger Step Ladder (Shoulder Therapy)

thingiverse

For physical rehabilitation. My father has frozen shoulder in both shoulders, making it difficult for him to raise his arms without assistance. This device is designed to allow him to use his fingers to help lift his arms, thanks to its ergonomic design. It's scaled to accommodate someone with large hands, but can be easily downsized by scaling all parts evenly. I printed the ladder in three separate pieces that snap together seamlessly, and two individual ends that also fit snugly into place. To print this device, you'll need a large build bed - I used my CR10s to bring it to life. Note that version one of this design lacked the additional mounting option. I've since posted an updated SLT file for version two, which includes all necessary parts. If anyone wants to make modifications, I've included .stp files as well.
