Recently I attended my third Startup Weekend Tulsa, and 2nd time pitching. And as this year the event was being held at Fab Lab Tulsa, I decided to pitch a physical product.

Enter the Magic Grip

An ergonomic attachment for the Magic Mouse.

My project was accepted and I was able to gather a design team to begin sketching up designs.

We were able to rapidly create the initial prototype using my super duper 3D imaging, modeling techniques, and having a 3D printer available helped as well…

After testing the prototype for a few days I noticed the shape was pushing my hand too far away from the touch surface, along with angling the mouse to the left. That Friday I began working on the next iteration. Which entailed pushing up the back arch support to the top of the mouse and to the right. ( for righties, this will be flipped on the left handed version. )

Currently I’ve printed a second prototype, and am working on a third.
