A Heartfelt “Thanks”

We at Robohand are very humbled by the response we’ve had to the Press Release done by MakerBot. We are in awe that so many people have shared, tweeted and posted all over the internet, our story and our journey.

We have had an overwhelming number of people contact us to offer their help in printing out hands for people. We appreciate the gestures and are tying to co-ordinate a “Helping Hands” database of people around the globe. Our hope is that this database will grow and grow and more people all over the world will be in a position to print hands for people.

For the enthusiast, you don’t need our permission! The files are free and available so if you know of someone that could use a hand, please extend yours, and offer them the help. This journey was never about making money but if every one person who owns a 3D printer created one hand for someone, we could make a magnitude of difference in so many lives.

Pay It Forward!

Thank you again to Annelise and the MakerBot team for your generosity and opening the world up to our idea.
