Will this 3D printed earring aid help with putting on an earring?

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.
