    Awesome project! I am also interested in the STL. My father in law lost parts of thumb, index and middle finger a few months ago... He needs solutions Asap to be able to continue his work. You would help so many if you were to share or sell the STL at affordable prices.

    Awesome project! I have Naked Prostetics PIP Driver on my pinky and a customized Point Designs Point Finger for my ring finger. Thus reminds me of a MCP Driver. My fingers cost my insurance $50,000 which is why I haven't gone back for a body driven ring finger. I really like your design!

    Beautiful project!
    I found your video by researching for 3D printed prosthetics thumbs for a friend that just lost his thumb on a tape saw on his work. Since he can't afford the other prosthetics because of the conversion cost to Brazilian Reais R$ and the importation fees, I started to look for low cost solutions that actually work. I found several projects on thingiverse and other 3D printing communities, but none of them was so nice as yours.
    He lost the first and the second phalanges of his left thumb, but still has the basic movements of the metacarpal bone.
    By what you learned with you project, do you think that the remaining movement of the metacarpal bone can drive a thumb prosthetics that is based on the same principle of yours?
    I have a 3D printer at home and I am already working on the string driven projects, but they are a little fragile.
    Thanks for putting so much work, time and thought on this project! This is a great inspiration for DIY makers and it can really help the mind and bring some joy for those who suffered these accidents!
    Cheers from Brazil!

    I would love to try this thing out. I have a partial middle finger amputation just above the middle knuckle. I’m trying to find something that will help me play piano again. Is there a way to design a slimmer finger section to fit between the black and white piano keys? This is piquing my interest!

      Hi Ian, thank you for commenting. I discovered your channel a few months after publishing this video--I'm very impressed by your work and your devices certainly have more functionality than what I presented here. I haven't refined this design at all, actually, NP targeted me and this video in a short-lived legal battle (so I'm a little scared to continue). Next would be adding an additional DOF for finger splay, and a bit more total bend of the finger. Keep up your channel, it's inspiring to many people!

So my plans have changed a bit, and I’m actually starting a prosthetics company right now using my design so that people can actually get custom mechanical fingers online without having to go through insurance and a prosthetist! I’m going to need some people to test out the product before I go into full production, and if you would like to be apart of that testing group I’d be happy to send you out a free fitting kit to make you one! I’m still getting things set up but if you have Instagram (_dandroid__) you can look me up on there and message me about it so we can exchange info. I’ll also be posting updates about it on there very soon. Let me know! Thanks!

    The maintenance guy at my work is missing part of his finger from when he was 19, he said a saw blade went down the middle of it and it wasn't repairable. I thought I would surprise him with a prosthetic but I can't find any files and I'm not very good at designing things like that and I didn't want to measure his finger like a weirdo especially if I couldn't make it for him in the end. He said he called some places about getting one but they said they don't make that body part I guess. Idk why, I think it would be a nice little extra money, sell the half finger for like $300. It could be made out of silicone or something easy and cheap. One day I will make it for him and produce a free file for everyone to use and instructions on how to modify it. I have really long skinny fingers and his are short and stubby so I can't measure mine but I can probably start playing around with tinkercad.
