Written in OpenSCAD + BOSL2, so fully customizable: width, thickness on both ends, the geometry of joint (influences springiness) and of the teeth (width and length)
There is a million 3d-models of tweezers here, but none of them has the ability to open wide and shape, that I want. I didn't scroll through all of them, maybe I just missed the perfect one. There are smaller ones that look promising, but would be too thick if I scale them. Lots of them had fancy rounded profile, which is not nice to print, and also bad for grabbing big flat things, so I had to design my own.
Print as is without supports. Sharpen the outer teeth with a file for better performance.
My github repo for all of my models may contain a newer version of this model, if I decide to update somethinga and forget to reupload: https://github.com/kauzerei/OpensCadaver/blob/main/models/tweezers.scad
