A fistful of enterprising engineer and artists areusing 3D printer to contrive and build sleazy but operative prosthetic handsfor kids who otherwise would n’t be able to afford them . And get hold of things one step further , Aaron Brown , a volunteer over atE - nabling The Future(the group behind the 3D - print prosthetics initiative ) took things one footstep further by plan a set offake Wolverine clawsto make kids wearing the prosthetics experience like superheroes .
The fake claw feature round tips and a silver - painted polish to make them look like they ’re made from sharpened steel — or adamantium . But while they might look dangerous , they ’re actually passably safe , and can easily be removed or sequester using a velcro radix . For kids with prosthetics , though , a little imagination is all it ’s fail to take to make them feel like they can take on super - villains , or the everyday task that the rest of us find easy .
