This evolution of the [Predator Action Pliers](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2917515) grab-toy model improves the design to address the two main issues people were having with the original model: weak grip and general structural strength.

To fix the grip I followed [Ozcymm](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2933847)'s approach but instead of shortening the piston I just moved it back one tooth. I took advantage of the new gap left at the front-end of the piston to add some additional teeth, which should provide even more grip when grabbing stuff.

To make the top support frame stronger I added a traverse triangular beam and a couple of hemispheres over the cores of the small gears. Initially I was a bit worried about how to merge the beam with the complicated shape of the support frame while making sure the underside was kept intact (so it didn't touch the moving parts), but in the end the Boundary Fill tool made the combination possible with just a few clicks. So easy!
