Condylus is a push-pin designed with an indentation on the plastic top to fit the metal shaft of an adjoining pin.


Condylus
has been designed with conical indentations located on both the top of plastic head and on the side with the metal pin. The user is thus able to connect pins on either side. The plastic pin-heads are elliptical in shape, which helps prevent them from rolling off tables. The elliptical form also assists users who have little strength. The user is able to store the pins by joining them together, and not just pile them up or put them in a small container. With the pins connected to one another, the pricking of hands is prevented. Condylus is also ideal forchildren and the elderly.
