This is the 3D CAD of the right gear

3D printed gears -- Servo Gear

This is the gear that the servo motor press fits into

Laser Cut Box & Claw

This is the file that contains the box that surrounds the gears and the claw that attaches to the gear. Red lines signify cut lines

Arduino Code

Arduino
Upload code to arduino. If you press the button then the claw opens; when you release the button the claw closes.
#include <Servo.h>

int buttonPin = 4;
int buttonState = 0;
Servo myservo;

void setup() {
  // put your setup code here, to run once:
  pinMode(buttonPin, INPUT);
  myservo.attach(9);
  digitalWrite(buttonPin,HIGH);
}

void loop() {
  // put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
  buttonState = digitalRead(buttonPin);

  if (buttonState == LOW)
  {
    myservo.write(90);
  }
  else
  {
    myservo.write(0);
  }
}
