Student develops device to help his grandfather fish more comfortably

Shared by Ana Duarte on 2019-06-18 10:13

About the solution

Shaun’s grandfather, who was 84 years old at the time, loves to fish. However, it was getting hard for him to fish because of his arthritis, which was affecting his grip.

So his grandson took action by developing orthorod, a homemade device that allows the user to hold the fishing pole more comfortable.

Shaun spent about 11 USD to develop this solution.
