Description
This is a can opener/helper, made for standard beverage cans such as soda, beer, sparkling water, cold coffee or tea, etc. I made this for my wife who occasionally struggled to open drink cans when her nails were done or otherwise prone to damage. It has a small divot to make the can opener feel more ergonomic. It prints in less 15 minutes and uses only roughly 2g of filament. Hopefully this helps you too!
12/27/25 [V1] - I updated the model slightly to improve strength and print quality, so if you had issues with the initial model please try again!
1/26/26 [V2] - I released a newer version of the model with a cutout to allow it to slide further over a can tab and be more stable. If you experience issues with can tabs bending, most likely it is because the can opener has not been pushed far enough. Use this version to make that easier!
