OpenEDS - Soda can opener
It's the first tool of the OpenEDS collection. OpenEDS is made to create open-source assistive tools to make easier and less painful life for Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome people.
Description
With EDS, It's hard to open a soda can. With this tool, don't hurt your fingers and use all your hands to open a soda can.
I've just add a small hole to attach this tool on a key ring.
This tool can help (poly-)arthritis, fibromyalgic or people with hypermobility.
Printing & edition
I've printed this with 15% gyroid infill and it works very well.
Also, don't forget to have 3 walls to strengthen the print.
If you want to edit the OpenSCAD file, You need to install the BOSL2 library.
