If
you've heard of 3D Printing you know there
are unlimited possibility as to what you can
print. With all things possible, a young boy
now has a functional 3-D printed prosthetic left hand.
Leon McCarthy a 12 year old boy, has been missing fingers on his left hand since birth.
When Leon's
father discovered a you tube video showing
the production and assembly of a similar 3-D
printed Hand, He soon took to his own effort
to produce a working prosthetic hand for his
son.
Parts were very affordable at $150. Compare
that to traditional prosthetic costing
around $10,000 or more. A 3-D printer can
make a Prosthetic hand in about 20 minutes.
