This stylus was uploaded for a research study being conducted at the University of Missouri.

This flexible stylus can be used by people with impaired hand function. The stylus will stay in place without being gripped when wrapped around the hand/wrist. None of the current design is actually 3D printed.

Parts:

• Gear Tie: https://a.co/d/2ILKdMz
• Stylus: https://a.co/d/az2jDHF
• Heat Shrink Tubing: https://a.co/d/7Nzrrj5 (any 3/8” heat shrink tubing should work)
• Hot Glue: Any brand should work.

Assembly:

• Cut one end off of the Gear Tie.
• Remove the “clip” end off the stylus. (Grab the silver end with pliers and pull hard.)
• Put a generous amount of hot glue into the opening where the “clip” was. I pull the hot glue gun trigger 15 times.
• Immediately insert the cut off end of the Gear Tie into the opening. Do this before your hot glue cools. The Gear Tie should seat down near the stylus tip.
• Slide about 5cm of heat shrink tubing over the junction of the Gear Tie and stylus. Apply heat.
• Allow to cool.

Done!
