This is a Tool designed for a patient who had partially lost his thumb on his left hand (refer to pictures).
It allows him perfom tip grip and hold a nail or a screw.
The thimble had a PLA framework, a silicone Body, and a magnet. The silicone body is fabricated by pouring silicone inside a mold (refer to pictures)
The framework has circles that allow a better attachment of the silicone and has a prolongation to avoid hiperflexion of the patient thumb. The fluted mold shape is for better
