🔧 Opening Pick | Plastic Pry Tool

This opening pick is a simple, reliable tool designed for safely separating plastic parts without damaging surfaces.

Its shape is inspired by classic guitar picks, making it comfortable to hold while providing precise control when working with clips, seams, and tight gaps.

🧠 Concept

When opening plastic enclosures, the biggest challenge is applying enough force to release clips without scratching or breaking the part.

This tool focuses on control and surface safety:

• Thin enough to slide into small gaps

• Flexible enough to avoid snapping clips

• Rigid enough to apply controlled leverage

The textured hole pattern improves grip, especially during longer use or when applying pressure.

🔧 Features

• Slim, tapered edge for easy insertion
• Rounded geometry to prevent scratches
• Honeycomb grip pattern for better handling
• Compact and lightweight
• No sharp edges – safe for delicate parts

🖨 Printing

Prints easily on most FDM printers.

Recommended settings:

• Layer height: 0.15–0.2 mm

• Walls: 2–3

• Infill: 100% (for strength)

• Material: PLA (easy) / PETG (more flexible & durable)

💡 Tip:

For extra flexibility, print slightly thinner or use PETG.
