Description

note: This is not my design. My name is Eric and I'm a long-time volunteer with eNABLE (you may have met me at ERRF/3DPrintopia). I am curating eNABLE designs to share with the Prusa Community. As an official representative from eNABLE this design has met the following requirements:

- It thoroughly documented for sizing and assembly - It officially recommended on behalf of the eNABLE community - It has passed internal eNABLE testing protocols for functionality Summary (from designer Jacquin Buchanon):

This is functional device for those with forearm limb differences. It has better functionality and easier to assemble than the 2.0 version.

Instructional videos for this design can be found here. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLO2iVws0boe0Yrh_1auXd5TTmXr6_y3zT

!!!! DO NOT PRINT THESE STL FILES DIRECTLY. !!!!! Download all the files and use the OpenSCAD to modify and scale the STL files.

The PDF file "Kwawu 3.0 Wrap Version Instructional Guide" will show you how to download the Open SCAD program and use the code in these files to size this model. The PDF can be downloaded here https://github.com/JacquinBuchanan/Kwawu3Wrap/blob/main/Kwawu%203.0%20Wrap%20Version%20Instructions.pdf

I have redesigned the Kwawu arm to be more natural looking and more functional. The terminal device has a much higher grip strength and functionality. Very good at picking up small things with index finger and thumb and big things with whole hand.

This version is the wrap version intended for people with long forearm residual limbs. There is a socket version for people with short forearm residuals

I would like to thank the e-NABLE community. It is a wonderful group to be a part of.
