TMT Butterfly Chest Strap

About this project

This is a 3D-printed version of the TOM Butterfly Chest Support. It is an adjustable postural support system that can be attached to various seating devices, such as the TOM Toddler Mobility Trainer and Portable Modular Toilet Seat.

The challenge

Current design requires a lot of sewing, and this design is entirely 3D printed and/or ordered and assembled by hand with no tools.

Who it helps

Designed initially for our Toddler Mobility Trainer and Portable Modular Toilet Seat, this product aims to provide additional postural support for any child who may need it

How it works

This design requires no sewing or assembly skills, so this will be far easier to produce especially for larger scale TMT builds. It takes about 5 hours to print, but under 5 minutes to assemble.

This design is a 3D printed butterfly strap with a button style securement method for the buckles that can be put together by hand.

Tools needed

PC or MAC I7 +

FDM Printer
