I wanted a tool to open doorhandles (lever ones only) and push buttons without me touching them. This is an early prototype, sized to fit on my small printer at a 45 degree angle. I used some coat hanger wire to make a loop, and mounted it on a retractable keychain thingie so it hangs from my belt. Thought I'd share in case someone else finds it useful. I highly recommend painting and sealing it, and washing it periodically. Germs could get stuck in the layer edges otherwise.
Kinda reminds me of having a lightsaber dangling for my belt, so I may make another version later along those lines.
Edit: Don't skimp on infill/density/infill pattern! The first version was printed rotated 45 degrees, and ended up having the infill turned in a way that wasn't as strong. Otherwise, you might end up with the grey picture. Second print is the black one, which I printed at higher density, more outer shells, and then painted to avoid issues with filament degradation.
