Download all files under "Thing Files" tab beneath hand photos; visit http://www.cyborgbeast.org for assembly and research info. For the Normal Hand Version, print 1 Right or Left Palm, 1 Normal Gauntlet/Gauntlet w Tensioner, 4 Finger Phals, 4 Finger w/Bumps or wo Bumps, 1 Thumb Phalange, and 1 Thumb Finger w/Bumps or wo Bumps. Alternatively, the No Thumb Hand Version requires printing 1 R No Thumb Palm or L No Thumb Palm, and 1 R One Hinge Gauntlet or L One Hinge Gauntlet, plus the same Finger Phals, Fingers, and Thumb components as the Normal version. Ulnar/Radial Deviation Hand, Movable Thumb Hand, and Cyborg Arm are forthcoming releases. This design prioritizes better gripping without overextension, fitting 1-2mm cabling/elastic bands, and doesn't require Orthoplastic while still functioning well with sufficient wrist movement. Assembly instructions can be found on http://www.cyborgbeast.org, while printing recommendations include 30% infill, 2 shells, 230°C temp (plastic-dependent), 60mm/sec extrusion speed, and 90mm/sec travel speed with objects oriented as designed in STL files.

Educational videos for assembly and testing are available on 3Duniverse.org by Jeremy Simon, while Tucker demonstrates functionality in a YouTube video posted by Tara.
