A small group of students from Brad Balkus's 8th grade engineering course are using their CAD and 3D printing skills to build prosthetic hands. As a part of a non-profit program called e-Nable, this team of students has printed and assembled several prosthetic hands. eNable partners like the Nock, 3D print and assemble the hands which are then returned to the organization for distribution to children around the world.
