Improve a hand prosthesis

I designed the fingers myself and made them with delrin acetal (polyoxymethylene). Then, I needed to connect them to the stump. I had the fingers superglued to a custom-made silicon glove and sugru made de union between the fingers and the glove. 

Before, on the first prosthesis I designed, this connecting part had to be made in an orthopedic lab and was made of carbon fiber, which is expensive and complex to work with, and I had to use screws to keep them together. Now, with sugru, the prosthesis is lighter, more flexible and less expensive. 

Today is the first day to test it, let's see what happens as time goes by. Thank you. Also, thanks to my beautiful girlfriend who made this English version.
