Spector Gadget Multi Holder

The Spector Gadget Multi Holder is an ingenious attachment designed by Aaron Brown of Axislab 3D for the versatile Python Prosthetic hand. You can find this innovative hand at https://www.youmagine.com/designs/python-utility-hand-alternative-assistive-device. Aaron's idea was to repurpose two child locks commonly found in most stores, which he purchased at a 99-cent store. These locks would work better for smaller objects if they could be modified with more teeth. To secure them in place, Aaron suggests super gluing them firmly into position. Alternatively, you might get away with drilling a small hole from the side and inserting a screw to hold them in place, but this method may interfere with the spring/button mechanism. To print the Spector Gadget Multi Holder attachment, Aaron recommends printing the main and attach parts with supports enabled. The knob part is best printed separately to ensure that the threads come out correctly. A suggested print setting is 0.2 mm layer height and 50% infill. The FreeCAD files are included for your convenience, allowing you to modify and share this design as you see fit. Version 2 of the Spector Gadget Multi Holder was not printed, but it's available in CAD format. This updated version features a shorter distance between the locks (total length now measures 120 mm) and an additional threaded block at the bottom of the attachment block for added strength to the assembly.
