Reinforced Swan Neck Ring Splint

thingiverse

This is an upgraded version of the Swan Neck Ring Splint designed for individuals requiring stronger ring splints. This swan neck splint offers additional support on the sides for enhanced comfort, providing flexibility in wear options. By pointing rings upwards, it restricts hyperextension of finger joints, while rotating the design can completely immobilize the finger. To determine the ideal size, measure the US ring size at the joint intended for bracing above and below the knuckle. Noting any discrepancies, select the larger measurement for optimal fit. A ring sizer is available if needed; it can also be purchased at a local craft store. For those without access to a 3D printer, options include visiting 3DHubs or reaching out to local colleges, libraries, or makerspaces for assistance with printing.
