IKEA Fork / Spoon Handle

My wife occasionally has problems with her joints. When they hurt and are swollen, she can barely hold a fork or spoon in her hand. There is "orthopedic" silverware with thicker handles that can be bought, but they're usually expensive and/or ugly. We wanted something that would benefit everyone by making a 3D-printable handle for widely used (and easily available) IKEA forks and spoons.

This is the result. I designed the fork in OpenSCAD so that the parameters could be customized if someone wants a thicker handle or has a different fork. The source code can be found on Github (https://github.com/coredump-ch/3d-designs/tree/master/fork_handle), licensed as CC BY-SA so that others can profit too.

The handle fits IKEA "Dragon" Forks / Spoons.

Put the two parts together and add rubber bands for more stability.
