Project 1: The Zome Remover Tool

The Problem:

A Construction set with small pieces that are easy to break. Building was easy, but both hands both old and young would loose grip or pull pieces apart at an angle and snap struts.

The Solution:

An ergonmicly designed grip that helps guide the removal process. The channel fits around all 3 major shapes of Zometool Struts, and the concave well in the bottom fits around Nodes.

The curve of the sides is made to fit around fingers of all ages. Users can use the remover to pull the Strut out of the node at a proper 90 Degree Angle, or use the thumb fins to push the node off the Strut instead.
