hands3 sleeve holders for the handy

So you've gone hands3 with a wearable or mountable ... That's one thing solved. Hooray!

What about the sleeves now? Do they sometimes slip, or feel tight or loose or just too fiddly to adjust to bust?

Well here is your new solution for this! The hands3 range of sleeve holders.

Simply insert your sleeve of choice inside and let the natural spring design hold your sleeve in place.

*These designs are sized to fit average to large guys - Though that can vary, so feel free to message/comment here if you require smaller or bigger models to print and I will accommodate as possible. There are clips that can be utilised to adjust spring force for a wider or tighter dampened hold. Alternatively, cable/zip ties can be used on the sprung and rose versions to tighten slightly for a tighter fit by squeezing down uniformly around the outer ring to make it slightly less round and more oval like.

Another way can be to utilise a perhaps previously redundant gen1 standard starter handy sleeve by cutting off the top tip and then use it to wrap around the sleeve you wish to use. This thickens the sleeve up to snuggly hold within the hands3 range of sleeve holders and can give a tighter feel.

Lube well in all cases/sleeves :-)

*These designs are made more so mostly for handy sleeves but others work too. However, handy sleeves generally offer the most convenience from softness in use and simplicity of cleaning and drying. So I strongly recommend original handy sleeves over other 3rd party sleeves.

*These designs are made to be printed in 2 parts and stacked together for use. This allows;

1) Interchangeability - e.g. use 3sprung and 7sprung together to experiment feels of tightness and looseness during insertion and retraction

2) A better centered hold of the sleeve allowing for a better balanced weight distribution of the sleeve and the holder during up and down strokes

3) Neatly filleted edges on both ends

These designs also include a pinch protection function in that if the handy was used with controls facing away, as commonly done with desk mounted set ups, then there is a safe distance from the bottom of the handy keeping ball sack skin safe.

This can also help those with concerns of fluids entering the open slot of the handy when using open (and closed) sleeves in the heat of the moment. The distancing reduces risk of fluids entering and needing a handy disassembly to clean out (which also voids the handy 1 year warranty)

I have also included a hands3 X10DA (nubbed and wider and smooth versions) so that original handy strapping up can still be utilised.

I will add more explainer information here as possible as well as more related models to sleeve holding with the handy:

• For the Rose sleeve holder, use of Rose A and Rose B may have a slight one sided feel as the spring can feel stronger to the right. This may be helpful for side curved guys. If curved to the left, simply use the Rose A and B pieces the other way around - Rotate the clip ons around 180 degrees. For everyone else, you can use 2 prints of Rose A stacked as this balances the spring rate from both sides.

• hands3 hush ... it's an acronym for Hands3 Universal Sleeve Holder - Think male masturbator standard, go or quickshots, onaholes etc. Bigger doesn't always mean better - You should trim Male masturbator standard and go sleeves to as needed than have the excess weight slowing down the handy motor.

• hands3 10-gable is for Tenga flips. Add a paper towel/ absorbent kitchen roll tissue to help with the friction fit if needed to keep the tenga flip zero slotted tightly inside within the holding slots. Enjoy the option to use the sleeve vertically or horizontally while the handy strokes away.

A double handy version of this has been added for more power and balance if required - i.e. Use 2x prints of the hands3 mountables to hold 2 handys side by side with the 10-gable2 in the middle operated by 2 synced handys (You can use multifunplayer) and the tenga flip zero attached.

This could be screwed down to a board or cable tied to 2 vesa plates on 2 or 1 monitor mount with 2 arms held together and secured for hold.

• hands3 cash is another acronym - Custom Adaptable Sleeve Holder... You can custom the size and spring rate to hold various sleeves but please don't add too much weight (over 400 grams) as that slows the strokes of the handy motor as well as ironically wears it out faster (ironically as usually faster demanding scripts wear out a motor faster while so does heavy sleeves that slow down script speed).

There's a retainer cap that can be glued on to the lower sleeve holder pieces to help hold them together. Alternatively the better split parts clip can also be superglued to hold these parts together if required. Or even better, there is a slide on part as illustrated so that no glue is required.

For the upper sleeve holder parts, there is a larger retainer ring that can hold the parts together better and then even more easily clipped into the handy strap holder.

Deeper versions of Cash sleeve holder parts have been added so that in combination with the standard versions, a deeper and lower stroke can be achieved too. Stroke length should be adjusted as needed.

The T shaped pins can be a bit tricky to use. Try to push the pin in by hand as best as you can, then turn it over against a table or wall edge, then place your thumbs beside the holes for the pin and push down so that the pin pushes up and out of the tiny friction fit hole. The reverse can be done to rearrange.

I have added a larger torsional spring for this and can make it a bit more larger if required - Please just let me know and I will add when possible.

• hands3 sleeve holder clips - These can help adjust spring rate to be tighter or dampened, just add as needed as shown in photos here.

• 50mm high c - clips: Taller so you can use a singular print of them rather than 2x of 25mm versions.

• X10DA might be more suitable for mjf printing due to strength needed from the strap slots. High infill, good filament and good quality printing may help and I might be just overthinking it but anyhow, for fdm petg printing, consider X10-DA².

This allows for much stronger strap slots by utilising the strength of multiple parts printed in the best orientation for the function. This way sandwiches inside the holder, the dual strap holders by friction fit then these clip into the handy.

• Deeper versions of sleeve holder parts have been added so that in combination with the standard versions, or with 2 deeper parts stacked, a deeper and lower stroke can be achieved. Stroke length should be adjusted as needed too.

• Double handy holder parts for the Sprung, Rose and Hush sleeve holder parts have also been added for extra power if needed like the 10-gable.

I do however strongly recommend you purchase the best 3d printer you can afford so you can print such items of private and personal use as you like. Printers from Bambu labs are great! Get an air filter and filament dehydrator too for safer and quality prints. Always allow prints to naturally cool and release from buildplates - about 20 to 30 mins and listen out for the maybe asmr esque satisfying release. This allows for stronger prints too.

08.11.25 - Adaptors to allow sleeve holder designs to be used with the handy2 as well as to allow the handy1 to use the new handy2 clip on sleeve holders - Just for the sake of interchangeability of parts.

More info to come ... parts to be assembled as illustrated - some parts can be superglued but not necessary. For handy2 use, this changes the locking mechanism so that is more of a pull off of push in fitting than the twist and lock way.

[This is not an official handy product]

3D Printing - Standard settings of 0.2 layer height, from a 0.4 toolhead. Some designs like the X10-DA² Nubbed and Smooth should use automatic tree supports enabled in slicer settings.

Further quality can be obtained from 0.12 layer height or by enabling variable layer height setting in slicer software utilised.

Material can be in PETG or TPU with at least 15% to 100% infill if using fdm home 3d printing or pa12 shot peened if using mjf commercial printing services.

• Please note, TPU use on sprung designs is not reccomended as the elasticity of tpu then counters the springiness thats been designed in more so for petg use.
