What originally started out as a couple of guys who created a 3D printed hand to help one child in need…has grown into a World wide Global Community of tinkerers, engineers, 3D print enthusiasts, occupational therapists, university professors, designers, parents, families, artists, students, teachers and people who just want to make a difference…who are creating hands for people in need and sharing their designs with the World for free.
They are coming together to create, innovate, re-design and give a “Helping hand” to those that need it – whether it is helping to print parts for them, creating a completed device for them or simply helping to guide them as they build one themselves.
There are people around the Globe – 3d printing fingers and hands for children they will never meet, classes of high school students who are making hands for children in their local communities, a group of people that are risking their lives to get these devices onto people in 3rd World countries and new stories every day of parents working with their children to make a hand together.
The seed was planted and the Tree is branching out, growing and becoming more beautiful than ever imagined!
Come watch it grow with us!
I recently lost four of five fingers on my left hand. I’m in need of a 3D prosthetic. If there is any help for me out there please let me know!
