Rowing Prosthetic

A man using the rowing prosthetic hand that was 3D printed

Students at the Cleveland Metropolitan School District's School of One at The Foundry took it upon themselves to build a hand prosthetic for one of their classmates so he could row racing shells with them. The mechanical stress put on a rowing athlete meant the prosthetic needed to be durable. These students produced many functional prototypes over a span of a few weeks, and continued to iterate on their design even after the program at think[box] ended.
