  1. I think an interesting fact about this article is how cheap and easy it is to make the hands, when it could be costing $40,00, and how easy and light they are to use.

  2. 1.)We didn't really learn anything about this before

    2.)This article doesn't really affect me now, but in the future if I loose my hand it'll affect me then.

    3.)An interesting fact that I saw in the article was that all the kids seemed to like the hands, when normally you would think that they wouldn't like them.

    1. Alec, think about all of the technological advancements we have studies. 3D printing is a major technological advancement. Do you see the connection?

  3. 1) yea, like lark said, we didn't learn about this.
    2) this doesnt affect me right now..since I have hands, but if I ever lose a hand, I'll be sure to get one of these. And a 3D printer
    3)an interesting fact is that if you have a 3D printer, you'll be able to "print" one of these out at home since the doctors gave the template on their website.
