Cartoon pointing hand on a stick - ideas?

[ChemicalChaos]

Bit of a strange one here... a colleague of mine is rather short, and has difficulty reaching a lot of switches high up or over counters. She usually resorts to using a ruler, which is too bendy and slippery normally.

Anyway, as a joke I was going to buy/find/make a pointer for her in cartoon style - imagine a white-gloved mickey mouse type hand, pointing with an outstretched index finger, mounted on a long pole.
Sadly, despite much googling, comedy pointers don't seem to exist and only boring plain wooden poles or similar are available.

I'm a bit stumped... has anyone got any ideas? I was thinking of somehow managing to 3d-print a pointing hand?

rubber glove and fill it with expanding foam /whatever , poke a stick in while its setting

then fit a decent glove on top

Whatever you get her, make sure it has no sharp edges

Are you trying to get in her pants?

Get your fill.

So just to clarify.

You've come on here asking where to get a rubber hand for a "friend"?

You should definitely take 'comedy pointers' into Dragons' Den, there's a viable business there.

I don't think it would be a business I'd invest in as you couldn't protect the idea but I'd certainly buy some. So much more interesting than a laser pointer.

Track these two down, they might have something they can suggest that would help...

Latex glove, filled with silicone with a stick pushed in while its setting!
