One Handed Boy plays Guitar with Custom Prosthetic Hand

[Eddie]

We've seen 3D printed prosthetics go to quite a bit of use in all kinds of scenarios. Now one boy in Columbia can play the guitar for the first time because of his new 3D printed prosthetic guitar-playing hand. Diego now jams out thanks to a company called 3Dgluck. The hand which is themed after Diego's favorite band, Linkin Park hold a guitar pick just perfectly. Read and see more on this at: http://3dprint.com/41528/3d-printed-guitar-hand/

That's great stuff! I've been playing guitar myself with two good hands for many years and know the pleasure that I get from playing. So I understand how Diego must have felt not being able to do it. There's so much ingenuity and creativity out there. I'm sure there's an abundance of applications in all areas.
