Jerry's Knick Finger

thingiverse

Started with the Knick finger and made adjustments. * Added keyhole connection between finger tip and tip knuckle for easier assembly and better hold. * Added tapered slots on middle segment to fit with integrated pins on the base and tip knuckles. This eliminates the need for hinge pins. * Eliminated knuckle plugs. Set ridge depths to fit strongly based on the Paramount 3D FlexPLA filament. * Increased the size of the tunnel for the elastic so it is easier to tell from the string tunnel. * Added an alternative to the linkage. Our recipient preferred more of a "glove" and wanted the string attached up on the back of the hand. Either option can be used with this design. The picture shows another remix- Yair Herbst made a modification of the Knick Finger for those with a working proximal knuckle. That modification was further modified to be redrawn in Fusion 360, have integrated pins, use the fingertip with keyhole shown in this design, a knob for holding the string in place under tension, and a flexible sleeve for comfort. That will be posted under Jerry's Middle Phalanx Amputation. This work was done by Enable Evansville, Kenzie's Helping Hands, and Jerry.
