Print a Helping Hand

Recently several Dutch fablabs participated in Project Egg by printing stones. That was for art and fun. But such collaborative effort can be taken to a much higher level.

At FAB10 we met E-NABLE, a growing group of over 1000 members from all over the World to help create and design 3D Printed assistive hand devices for those in need.

Inexpensive prothesis, like Waag Society pioneered for leg limbs. The E-NABLE community develops them for missing hands and fingers. Fascinating, as you can see on their Facebook page. All material is open source to be adapted to a specific case. And you can join.
