Testing 3D Printed Gripper

We are trying out a few different 3d printed gripper designs.

For this one, each finger has a gear printed at the joint so that when 1 moves the other does also. This can be tougher to print but it is a nice mechanism.

The print went bad about 3/4 of the way through, but we were able to get a proof-of-concept test finished.

We are also making a rigid gripper that can hold a Sharpie, and one that is just a small hook.
