GE Quick Connect

****** 3/9/15 - Introducing my entry for the GE Quick Connect Challenge! My goal was to design something easy to use, quick to implement and cost-effective. The device features a 4mm diameter wire-form as a fulcrum, working in tandem with a cavity and a relatively thick piece of silicone with a reasonable degree of deformation. I also included additional renderings for clearer explanation of the parts involved. If you have any suggestions, please let me know - I'll update my entry accordingly. 3/9/15 - I've uploaded more renderings and fixed the IGS file for my entry. It's strange that my original IGS file was missing, but GrabCAD is looking into it. Overall, I'm happy with my progress so far! ******** 3/9/15: My submission to the GE Quick Connect Challenge is here! The design is simple, easy to use, and can be implemented quickly while keeping costs low. It uses a 4mm diameter wire-form as a fulcrum in conjunction with a cavity and a thick piece of silicone with a reasonable degree of deformation. To better explain the device's functionality, I have uploaded additional renderings. Please feel free to provide feedback so I can update my entry accordingly. 3/9/15: I added more renderings for a clearer explanation and fixed the IGS file for my GE Quick Connect Challenge submission.
