Can somebody please make this assistive technology aid item as linked below? The pattern title is: “Binder Clip Grips – 15, 20, 25, 30 & 50 mm
by VegasGuy July 26, 2018” on the Thingiverse website.

They are handle grip extenders for Binder Clips that provide a larger surface area to apply pressure, which allows for opening binder clip office supplies less painfully. I am a traumatic brain injury (TBI) survivor living with 2 different disabilities that make handling these mundane fine motor skill items quite difficult– and unfortunately, I work in a government office where I am expected to use them for binding hundreds of documents daily.
If I could also suggest one modification from the linked Thingiverse design: Please make them easy to remove and to reapply for use on multiple sets of clip handles, rather than making it snap in or lock into one binder clip permanently.
Hello

Hi
Do you still need help with this? I have some ideas for a small tool that could help (and work with different size clips).
