Help improve this design
If you have trouble pressing a car seat buckle, print a prototype and tell me how the grip and press effort feel; what works and what doesn't both help the next revision.
This project is a work in progress. If you would like to test it, suggest changes, or help iterate, feedback is welcome on the model pages linked above. See the other works in progress for related designs.
This is an in-progress redesign of the Child Car Seat Unbuckle Aid. It reworks the handle into a rounded, keyhole-shaped grip and experiments with textured surfaces for a more secure hold with less hand effort.
The prototypes shown above are not yet a finished release; the current ready-to-print files are the v1 design linked on the original project page. The Thingiverse listing above carries both the v2 and v3 iterations, shared early so testers can try the new grip and report back before either is finalized.
