Portable Dress Stick

The challenge

Millie would like a portable dress stick that she can bring with her when she travels.

Who it helps

Millie uses a motorized wheelchair and getting dressed independently can be challenging so she uses a dressing stick as an aid.

How it works

It will allow for a light, portable dress stick that is fully customizable.

We are making a portable dress stick, made from PVC pipes that can be unscrewed. It will also have detachable and modular fittings for the ends based on the person's needs.

Tools needed

Prusa slicer

Pvc pipe cutter

FDM Printer
