Description
This is a simple tool for harvesting cherries and berries that are otherwise too high/far to reach.
More notes here:
https://www.instructables.com/id/Extended-Reach-Cherry-Picker-Stick/
It uses an off the shelf assistive gripper device from Dollar Tree, (which is kind of an amazing value by itself for $1). Its only gets you 30" of extra reach but it works really well.
Per the photo, the white parts are printed in TPU and the bowl is PLA. Assembly is held together with zip ties. As long as you use those materials the design will be forgiving and no print supports are needed.
Happy picking!
