Activity 2 : Printing prosthetics
One thing I learned from watching the video was that there is a global community of volunteers that use 3D design software and 3D printers to create prosthetics for many children and adults that are missing fingers, wrist, hands or even palms. The one thing that surprised me was that many modern prosthetics cost over thousands of dollars and they give the ones they create away from as little as nothing (people get it for free) to under $100 dollars. I think what they are doing is really amazing, I love it so much, and I support them 100% !!!

Well done on posting and continuing to participate in the SLJ this year. What could you do to be a prosthetic changemaker Limi? Keep blogging, and commenting on others, to increase your chance of winning one of the awesome prizes and to keep up your learning over the school break!
Hej Limiteti,
I'm still shocked that real prosethetics go over thousands of dollars. If it weren't for these wonderful people for coming to the conclusion of making 3D prosethetics, who knows how many families would be struggling. :(
Were you able to learn anything else from the video?
