Let`s 3d Print a Prosthesis Hand for a Kid!

3d printed arms and hands are making its way to the mainstream - they are flexible, cheap to produce and a real help for the people who need to wear them. The professional robotic arms what are available on market are costing a fortune and can even not paid if you are a normal human.

Do kids wear them?

Of course - in fact they are in love with that prosthesises as we can 3d print them in any color and the real pro.... they and 99% of all other kids see it as cool to have a robotic hand. The handicaped child gets from one to the other minute a super hero!

What model?
