Would anyone would be able to make one of these for a robot?

If so, please let me know. Also estimate of cost.

I can make it. I have all the necessary filament and I’ve worked with various flex materials. Please provide more information about what you want: Right or left hand, how much of an opposable thumb, what color, PLA or ABS, do you want it assembled or just the pieces?

I know Jesse McCabe in Michigan made a hand and also makes robot arms.

Wow, that’s a pretty cool design. Are you looking for someone to just print the parts or do the full assembly? Will it be touching anything hot? I have a lot of material options, depending on your intended use. Glad to help if you cannot find someone local.
I’m definitely going to print one of these of these for fun.

Hello, I would want two fully assembled hands. The left hand to be just the prototype (not functional) and the right hand to be functional. For the right hand the thumb would need to be opposable enough to grip something soda can sized. Material would be PLA, color either black & white, or solid blue. I’m currently in touch with a local organization that already has a prototype assembled. Do you have an estimate of what this would cost to make?

If you are responding to my message of yesterday, I would prefer not to continue this discussion in an open forum. You can contact me via my hub or directly via email: jurgen (at) jgscraft.com
