Easy Nail Clipper

The challenge

People with limited dexterity struggle to use traditional nail clippers.

Who it helps

People with limited dexterity in their hands or grip strength who want to cut their own nails.

How it works

The Easy Nail Clipper provides a larger area on which to press down on the nail clipper: allowing for those with limb difference, limited strength or grip, to use a traditional nail clipper.

This is a 3D-printed nail clipper adaptation that easily attaches to a store-bought nail clipper without any adhesives or tools.

Tools needed

PC or MAC I7 +

Pliers

FDM Printer
