The ErgoArc Pen - Bic
Print Profile(4)
Description
Stop fighting thin, slippery pens. I designed the ErgoArc because my hand was tired of cramping up during long writing sessions. It’s a 3D-printed shell specifically for the cheap, reliable Bic Cristal refill.
Why it feels better:
- The Curve: The arched body rests on the back of your hand, taking the pressure off your fingers.
- The Grip: Long, textured divots accommodate almost any grip style—high or low.
- Middle Finger Support: A small bump near the tip keeps your hand open and relaxed, not clenched.
- No Slip: The fine integrated texture keeps your fingers from sliding around.
Important: This pen is asymmetrical. I’ve included dedicated Right-Handed and Left-Handed files—make sure you print the one you need!
Just get a refill for a Bic Cristal (or take it from one you have) and slide it into the printed body. It’s a simple friction fit. If you print one, I'd love to hear what you think!
