Milena's hand
Added 2023-02-03 23:32:16 +0000 UTCMilena finally received her prosthetic. She was aware it would not be like her hand, but it's still a shock to discover is crude look.
I went for something different than classic hooks. It does exist, but I'm not a prosthetic expert to know if it's better than classic hooks or has other reasons to be..

Groovy.

2023-02-03 23:49:45 +0000 UTCI suppose that's just a tradeoff you have to make. I think these specifically are more geared toward daily use than some others, but I can't imagine them to be more precise than the finer tip on a classical split hook. On the other hand I can't imagine having as good a grip on something like a drink can or a bike handle with the classical one. This specific one is intended for daily use, my mistake: https://www.trsprosthetics.com/product/grip-5-evolution-prehensor/
