- Discover if this 3D printed earring aid can help with putting on earrings! Perfect for those with weak pinch grip, arthritis, or limited finger dexterity.
We had a viewer tell us she was having trouble putting on her earrings due to difficulty with her pinch grip so we did some research to see what help we could offer.
We found a product called Little Finger but it was discontinued so we turned to the Illinois Assistive Technology Program’s Maker’s Program.
Watch Christina try out the first iteration of an earring aid 3D printed by the IATP Maker’s Programs.

Glad I’m not alone with this issue! ❤ Thanks!
@@sherrynan2028 We’ll keep you posted on the second iteration 🥰🥰
Please keep me informed as well. My sister has a need for something that will help her put on earrings.
@@craigfischer465 The 2nd iteration is on its way.
Do you have the blueprint for this?
@@SebBasco We could get the file but it needs to be tweaked. The prongs and the clip are too wide to easily hold an earring back. Are you able to print items? If we sent you the file could you improve the design?
@@AECorner Yes I could take a look and see if I can improve the design. If I do I can send back the updated version.
@@SebBasco That would be great! Please contact us via our website. I’ll reach out to our Makers program and see if they will send us the file.
