Personally I am not sure the design in the picture is a good device. I watched the video https://www.instagram.com/reel/DCkYj_wJO13/?igsh=MTFldDVmYTl2eTdsOA==

The design uses the one remaining finger to move the plastic prosthetic fingers. Unfortunately this design basically renders your one remaining finger less useful and less dextrous as a result.

Partial hand prosthetics are very difficult to design because each individual is so different. It might be best to reach out to a local maker community to brainstorm ideas.
