About this 3D model

An early concept for a prosthetic knee/elbow joint with a printable flexible hinge using the elastic properties of Filaflex from [Recreus](http://recreus.com/). . This joint has the advantages of being self straightening, tough and durable with shock absorption properties built in. . The socket takes the principles from the custom socket cups that I designed/printed recently which are currently undergoing tests for [e-NABLE](http://enablingthefuture.org/). Therefore we could have a printable or castable flexible liner that conforms to the users residual limb. . http://www.gyrobot.co.uk http://www.facebook.com/gyrobotuk
