thingiverse

Detailed assembly instructions can be found here: https://bit.ly/2VcbggR The 'Pocket Grapple' is a compact grappling hook that easily grabs objects. It's a keychain-sized mechanical claw & retrieval hook that's both useful and fun! It has 3 different configurations: *Gravity- Suspend it from a cable, and when it touches a surface, gravity & leverage push the jaws open. Lifting the device then closes the jaws around your prize. The claw hooks are designed so that the weight of the object will not reopen the claw, keeping it secure! *Triggered- Adding a rubber band and the triangular shaped trigger allows you to actively snap onto objects where the gravity-grip-leverage alone wouldn't be enough. Watch our video to see how we used it to grab the edge of a mason far! *Grappling Hook- Grabbing onto the cross bar piece converts the claw into a magnetic 4 prong hook, giving you even more retrieval options! It's perfect for retrieving hard-to-reach items like when you drop a tool behind the tool chest or a sock behind the dryer! But it's also a unique toy. 100% of kids aged 9+/-3 years love this thing! **Shopping list: 1X Badge Reel: https://amzn.to/2vDJ0t3 Key Ring + Key Chain: https://amzn.to/39Cyq46 Tiny Rubber bands- https://amzn.to/2HsF4Ol 3X Short screws - (3mm dia x 9.5mm long) https://amzn.to/2wkYylD 1x Long screw - (3mm dia x 15mm long) https://amzn.to/31YWH1G 1x 8mm x 3mm Neodium Magnet- https://amzn.to/2P0J0Kj Alternatively, check out the remaining inventory of Assembled Pocket Grapples on my store. https://etsy.me/3c0FERi Watch our video to see it in action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4KIUqN8NEs&feature=emb_logo
