Patent attributes
A fingertip grinder mechanism is provided with which a user can manually grind spices, herbs, and other organic materials without pain, fatigue, or other discomforts. Five specific types of fingertip grinders include the thumb grinder, the fore fingertip grinder, the two fingertip grinder, the three fingertip grinder, and the four fingertip grinder. An individual puts on one type of fingertip grinder on one hand and another type on the other hand and proceeds to rub their hands back and forth together to effect the grinding of the contents between the hands. The grinder element can have holes as well as the grinding spikes and a tray built in under the grinder element to catch and store the residue of the grinding process that enters through the holes. Magnets can be embedded in the fingertip elements so that they can cling to each other and not get misplaced.
