Summary
For large hands. Brim recommended.
This design is for Nintendo Switch Joy-Cons. It is modelled after a 3D scan of an impression made with silly putty. I have used it for weeks and it’s very comfortable. If you've ever sat with a kid on your lap playing games together, you may know the value of having the joy-cons separated. It is also more relaxing to sit in a recliner with your arms on the arm rests.
My hands fit mens large sized gloves slightly snug (for size reference.)
These grips are not as comfortable for small hands.

How I Designed This
3D scan with Capture app by Standard Cyborg (iOS) an iPhone with FaceID is required. I scanned the Joycon with the silly putty attached to it. Exported from Standard Cyborg's website (sign-up but still free) as a .ply file. I edited that point cloud file in MeshLab to reduce the number of points then I created a solid surface using Screened Poisson reconstruction. Exported to .stl and imported in Meshmixer. Deleted irrelevant areas of the mesh and saved. Then imported into Fusion 360 as a mesh and overlaid a Mesh surface and matched the mesh manually. I had the attachment design already from another design so I used that with a trim body I created to make room for the Joy-con. Right side was just a mirror of the left.
