Crazy how many of us are so distractted by her bubbly personality and incredible art to the point that we didn't even notice that she doesn't have left pinky🤣🤣🤣
@@zolord75 congrats.
Yeah never noticed before XD
What the heck how didn't I see that 😳 her art was too beautiful to even notice it
IKR??? I watched her for like a year before I finally noticed and I was like, "How the heck did I miss that, we see her work with her hands all the time?!??!?!" 😂😂😂
Took me years being a sub to find it.
I saw it in a video once and I was like "what the heck!? How am I just noticing this now!?"
How did I never notice
Don’t feel bad it took me a while too😂
I don't know. I didn't notice either.
Same, this is the first time I'm seeing this 😲
Same
Bro same…
I am an engineering student and in the robotics, you can increase strength by adding counter wires on the opposite side. Also switch to metal cables. Fishing line breaks really easily, but you can find metal wire in the jewelry supply section to replace it and its virtually indestructible without wire cutters. To protect the wires you can run them inside the finger mechanism. Also, just an idea, but if you want to add a screw in feature to your new prosthetic fingertip, you could put interchangeable tips on it. As well as an attachment on the back of the glove too. You have given me so many ideas to think about! BTW, This is an amazing job! Absolutely brilliant! I was 10,000 % impressed! My little inventor/engineering heart just jumped to so many ideas.
Ok so it just occurred to me, what about adding the interchangeable fingertips, you can get a small alligator clamp attachment, it will help you hold the tiniest of miniatures when you are crafting. A detachable led flashlight, a tiny detachable spy camera that blue tooth connects to your computer, so you can see inside your models, incase you every need to. And just for fun, A detachable Lazer pointer to point at things to randomly annoy your cat.
You could probably design a small storage container for your interchangeable tips on your forearm by expanding the glove a little bit.
@@mm-nt8el For proper practical use she probably needs it made in titanium or something though since resin prints arent that study especially if continuously subjected to stress (movement twisting pressure etc).. its great for prototyping though :)
Any chance you know where I could find the schematics to this pinky engineering marvel? I actually lost my pinky on the same hand. I want to make this. Just don't know where to begin without the plans.
This is BADASS. She just made, refined, and beautified her own prostetic!
@schadenfreude5349Oh yea, non existing guy is what we need
@schadenfreude5349 Prove it
@schadenfreude5349 Prove it
Both people in the replies are in the wrong. Marcin is slightly being rude and schaden isn’t respecting that other people have different religions and beliefs.
@@SunnySlays101 Nah bro. You can believe that your cat not gonna become chunky. Not in non existing guy in the sky because old fantasy book told you to to believe
are you telling me i've been watching you work with your hands for over a year and I never noticed you were missing a whole pinky?? 😭 either way I'm glad it doesn't stop you from art, and I just love the glove you made, so cool!!
same i never saw it
You're not alone in your disbelief
i feel lied to, and relieved at the same time. soo conflicted right now
Yeah same.. I never noticed... just rewatched some of the videos.. and its right there :D PRobably always focused on the work itself or at the face when she is talking about it... My mind is blown :D
Same here. I never noticed. But it makes her art even more impressive.
How did I not know you were missing a WHOLE finger?? I’ve spent countless hours watching you make projects with your hands! Wow. Guess it shows how mesmerizing your work is. ♥️
Ha ha, same 🤣
I didn't notice either before watching this!(guess that would be pretty hard after watching this) I might be extra aware of missing and/or "artificial" body parts now since I am going to have heart transplant surgery in the summer if everything turns out well :)
A friend of mine misses their ring and middlefinger and most people don't realise that for years unless they explicitly mention it (like, having used it as an excuse not do crochet in school)
my thoughts exactly! i was like wait what
I'm glad that I'm not the only one XD
"Don't forget we have reservations at 8"
"Ok I just have to do my makeup and pick out a pinkie"
"Ok well don-...????"
The unapologetic joy and pride of "Give me more objects!" was sincerely amazing.
The phrase "so that everyone can 3-d print their own prosthetic fingers" makes me realize that we really are living in the future.
She became big Boss, but small version
I love when technology helps people in such simple but life changing ways

@benny7569 inshallah!
The only thing it made me realise is how sad it is that people find that more accessable
The fact that I was SO worried about her having an accident and the realize that she had a missing finger all this time just made me laugh at how blind I can be sometimes 🤣
Same!
I clicked so fast thinking she had an accident 😭
Me too! I actually gasped when I saw the title. 😅
I have been a subscriber for years and I never noticed she had lost a finger! 🤣
im so glad im not the only one who never noticed lmao
@@whiterabbit11189 ... what has this got to do with anything? and considering most of these comments hadn't even noticed she'd lost a finger years ago, i doubt any of us are ideal candidates to be scientists LMAO
@White Rabbit Are you a bot?

Ngl, this is the second vid I've ever watched and I was expecting a birth defect not a WHOLE ASS TABLE SAW ACCIDENT
The physical and occupational therapist here. To say I'm impressed you managed to create a functional prosthetic is the understatement of the century! It may not seem so useful to you, but practice makes perfect. The more you try to utilize the prosthetic the easier it becomes. Sure, it may not hold the functional prosthetics standards from a medical point of view, but you managed to create one nonetheless. I've been watching your videos for many years and noticed your finger not so long ago. The positivity you hold in every single video manages to camouflage what you're missing, which is absolutely nothing. The way you have learned to cope with technically four fingers in one hand is perfect, from my point of view. With that being said, you can actually start doing occupational therapy with this prosthetic. Learn numerous ways to grab big and small items. Practice different types of grips with this glove. Try using it while doing your daily activities like putting on clothes with it, working with buttons, cook, cleaning, painting, coloring, drawing, or anything you put your heart into. I am so proud of how you manage to utilize your hand. Keep doing what you love and don't let any negative thoughts creep into your beautiful creative brain. You can actually help others who live under your same condition with this prosthetic. Keep on playing around with this one and see where it can lead you. Not only will it help you understand its functional mechanism but it will also facilitate your day-to-day activities. I know I said it already, but I'm so proud and seriously impressed with this project of yours. Can't wait to see what beautiful projects your brain comes up with. Keep on going Nerdforge! You can and always will accomplish everything and anything. Sending love and blessings to you and all of your loved ones all the way from across the lake, specifically Honduras.

best comment I've read on this video :)
@@ooneybird27 I had a history teacher and she was our homeroom teacher too, for a couple of years, with a modification like this. Never told us how she got those scars though
You should also take a look at Ian Davis' channel where he creates his own partial hand prosthesis!
This is very impressive but we also need to make sure to remember the original creator of the finger who posted the design online.
I’m an LMT! We work on these!
I still can't believe we live in a time where you can _print prosthetics at home_
Holy shit I only just realised that- WHAT REALITY IS THIS-
I mean...you could kinda always make your own prosthetics...? IMO the real breakthrough is 3d printing in and of itself!
Only if you can afford a 3D printer
@@therealgrimreaper68
They're not that expensive nowadays, and there are plenty of places that will print to your deign files - libraries sometimes offer the service, too.
People have actually been doing this for quite a few years - some of the custom things kids have turned out have been quite amazing, and they're able to replace them easily as they grow older and bigger.
I know the pain of having a large forearm scar that people jump to conclusions about.
Mine is from a metal plate installed where I snapped my whole forearm in half (both bones)
Are you OKAY now?!
That's some absolutely awe inspiring engineering and creativity right there.
The phrase
"... which is an open-source project that makes it possible for people to print their own prosthetics." made me tear up. Humans working together to make self-augmentation accessible is such a beautiful thing.
That filled me with SO much joy!
yeh that's cool
too bad i have all my fingers still 🤣
this weird feeling of being thankful I'm fine but also really love the idea of cyborg my 2 thoughts just crash with each other a lot
And this is why I love the internet.
Oh, and fanfic.
check out Enable... its a massive world wide group building prosthetics for people.. all 3d printed, all free
And in the video some of the flaws Martina pointed out are also useful in a general sense, since some of that could be taken into account by other people making prosthetics so they can make ones that work better.
A table saw accident is no joke. I can’t imagine how much pain you were in after the shock subsided. Stories like this always remind me to respect the machines
Also a reminder that stuff like this can happen to experienced crafters too. It's so easy to get overconfident after doing something for a number of years. Me personally though, I've always been scared shitless of table/power saws. I blame that one shop class episode of Beavis and Butthead that I saw as a child. 😅
@@planetschlock tbh it’s always the experienced that lose fingers because they don’t have the fear anymore
@@planetschlock im also terrified of power saws, however, i blame king of the hill for that one. (i vaguely remember an episode where someone got their hand/finger cut off either because they weren't paying attention or the person who was controlling the saw wasnt paying attention..)
My father took off a couple of his fingers when I was young, so when I became a carpenter I had a built-in respect. After 40 years, I still treat any power tool with as much respect as I did the first time I used it.
@@spongebobsquarepants7837 What a silly comment. I personally know several carpenters who exactly know what workplace safety means (why that is somehow not part of the experience of "the experienced" worker defies all logic ... like you wrongly assume). And here in this very comment section is another carpenter posting exactly the opposite of your generalizing and unproved claim (did I mention that it is silly?). Further: Accidents happen. To everyone! That is the reason why we have safety regulations and safety measurements at the workplace and with machines or tools. And the victims even don't have to be blamed for that what happened. Its called an accident, not self-inflicted self-mutilation. You should really learn what the words mean you are using without any thought (like "... they don’t have the fear anymore". What a wild claim and demonstrably BS!).
Of course, there is the possibility that someone loses attention during a recurring or boring activity (That is where safety measurements come into the game). But surely not in the case of dangerous and difficult manual work, which is a property what characterizes the EXPERIENCED worker. That is the complete opposite of what you're fantasizing here.
Edit: I should've looked more into that: You use the word "fear". Anyone who has FEAR instead of RESPECT for dangerous work and tools has clearly missed the profession. After your strange view on even that aspect of reality I highly suspect that you just made your little "wisdom" up to tell us some smart looking BS. While in reality you have absolutely no clue what you are talking about.
I empathise. Having lost my middle finger (Left hand - non-dominant, thank God) 10 years ago now, I hardly notice it. It took a little time to adjust but thankfully, I realised it's not one of the important digits like a thumb or a forefinger. The phantom limb syndrome disappeared after about 5 years & the only time I notice it these days is when I accidentally bang the stub against something solid. That's when the air is full of colourful metaphors / language. Props to you - quite literally, for rebuilding your hand. It was SO fun to watch. 🤗😃
I am curious, did you ever try to flip someone off with that hand before remembering that you didn't have the finger anymore?
I absolutely love your energy. I also really appreciate you discussing your finger and prosthetic journey!!!
5 years... 5 years i've been subscribed and watched every single video... not once did I notice. All the content is so engaging, I guess I was paying so much attention, Martina was like a magician with the misdirection of being awesome.
we're two
Three now 😂😂.
four
Five… 😬
six! tho i wasnt here for 5 years
The fact that the majority of us in the comments(me included) had no idea you were missing your ENTIRE pinky finger just goes to show how we were all to busy focusing on your insanely gorgeous art to notice!!!!!
I was so shocked with the video title that I was like "what I can't believe this just happened" and she was like "this is the story on how I lost my finger 6 years ago". That means I have actually never seen a video of her with all fingers. How did I miss that.
@@buciallstar I never noticed either! Lol 😆
I never noticed either XD
I once knew a girl for a full year before i realized she was missing a hand
you are very optimistic. made me sincerely be amused when you showed the trick with the finger!
Thank you, girl! You are an inspiration!
This was such a cool video! Love your bubbly personality and humor!
In a lot of her old videos, she always tries to hide her left hand. When she made her video about getting 100k, she was hiding her hand the whole video. It is so amazing to now see her comfortable with her lost finger. We should respect her for being strong and sharing this with us. She didn’t give up on what she loved the most and continued on strong. We all love you Nerdforge!
Much like how in MASH they mostly hide Radars left hand
James Doohan, who was Scotty on Star Trek for 3 seasons and several movies was missing a finger from WWII. He just managed to hide it with props and camera angles all those years, and no one noticed. I don't think he was ashamed, either, he just didn't want to have to explain it.
I would suspect the same thing here. Martina found a way to make some Lemonade.
Absolutely! 👏
@@shaneofthehillpeople and in Scotty’s case it would also have been very hard to explain why that finger would not have been replaced in their Science-Fiction Universe.
Huh? I mean videos from less than a year ago clearly show two intact hands.
This is the biggest, " I'm living in the future," moment I have ever had. I just watched this woman design, print, assemble, and refine her own prosthetic. WOW.
Genius! Your awesome af! Her personality is bubbly/explosive. Love it!
Fantastic video. Great to see how you changed & improved the design & functionality through the various iterations.
You say that for carrying boxes & heavy items it won't be of much use, but bear in mind when carrying heavy items I would suggest that the little finger doesn't do a great deal anyway so ......
Anyway, well done & good luck with it.
i think martina now officially the coolest person in the world walking around with a light up cyborg finger.

@@whiterabbit9938 hey i don't mean to upset you, but maybe you could post that somewhere else? It's not very relevant and you aren't very likely to convert someone this way :)
not trying to make her look bad, but someone else lost 4 fingers and now has a mechanical hand @missingpartsclub and I think that's also cool
The little 'hehe' laughs each time something works are so precious and simultaneously give goblin energy I love it 😂❤️
That's because she's slowly turning into dark side :s
My wife is a very similar woman (I say she has a dopelganger in Norway now), and today she noticed that their hehe is almost the same :D
i’ve seen this glove on a few other videos of yours, and i thought it was just for a cosplay which is pretty cool- BUT THIS ?! this makes its meaning so much cooler !! (plus i bet it feels pretty neat to cyborg-ify yourself in a way) SUPER COOL
This project turned out great! I love watching your ideas come to life!
I've watched for years as you make projects with your hands... and I legit had zero clue you've been missing a finger for years. That's wild. Amazing video as always!
Same!
I noticed immediately BUT was quickly overshadowed by her talent
im ashamed to say i never noticed
because you and your hubby do such a great job on the projects
same
I’m not ashamed to admit it. I was and am distracted by Martina’s amazing talent and vision for what she does. Seriously cool. And her humor. Humor always helps.
Dude same I’ve watched them for about a year and never noticed 😂
I somehow never noticed either 😂 you’re not the only one!
I think it speaks to her quality of work when so many of us never noticed
Girl, you're sooo cool! And finding your channel just warmed my heart. Subscribed 🙃
I lost an arm at birth, this video has inspired me. Not to make a new arm, but to go back into that hell and take it back myself.
Yes, I support your dream. Let me know how that works out. Like the man said, when life gives you lemons make life take them back. Demand to see the manager.
hahhahahaha
LMAOOOO
Why stop there? Seems like a waste to go all the way to hell for just a single arm...
I'll get the Argent Metal!
I didn't realized she lost that finger until this video, I'm surprised!!! It clearly shows how a positive attitude, determination and great support can outshine the circumstances. I hope that this project really helps Martina more and more along the way.
You know Scottie on the original Star Trek was missing a joint on one finger.
My best friend has been missing some fingers for so long that I don't even really see when someone else doesn't have all of theirs. I had a student for a year and only when I handed him his graduation certificate I actually realized that he was missing one.
Truly inpiring and you are so full of positive energy it really just exudes from this video
I never noticed you lost your pinky before this video. I love your enthusiasm and charm, and I truly enjoy each and every video you make!
Been watching for years, never knew she was missing a finger, just goes to show how damn entertaining she is, XD
Yeah I was think it was another Mandela effect, that I just got pushed to another universe. Because I've never noticed before.
Good to know I`m not the only one who didn´t know she has a missin finger xD
I never noticed either, I just went to her channel to find older videos and seen that its missing it, I just never noticed it lol
@@philmorton4590 100% a Mandela effect.
It’s absolutely insane that we’re at the point where we can make prosthetics in our own homes
we cant, she can
@@Demon8593 why not? Printing and assembling the finger could easily be done at home
@Rivers Grace I didn’t say everyone could. I was just pointing to the fact that the technologies and capabilities aren’t just limited to specialist companies.
@Rivers Grace no but with how cheap that is to actually make you could probably contract out the making of the parts for 3 to 12 dollars.
@Rivers Grace i'd say a lot of people could afford it if they saved a bit of money, 3d printers have gotten WAY cheaper over the years. there are also services online that print things and ship it to you, which is nice. my friend used to build all sorts of college projects with 3d prints he ordered online
You’re awesome! Love your personality and creativity!
Can we just applaud this lady for making her own functional prosthetic????? And making it stylish???? Its giving me serious fullmetal alchemist vibes ❤️
So cool ❤️
Is she Winry irl ? 🤔😏
Yeah this was one of the best episodes .
We CAN applaud, but not with just a single finger like she can....
So, she wins already.

Det er sååå inspirerende å se hvordan du har laget noe godt og kult ut av den manglende fingeren din på en så positiv måte! You rock!!!
Det er også kult at hun er norsk
I'm sure someone has already suggested it, but you may want to put a rubber pad or something 'grippy' on the bottom tip of the prosthetic. It won't offer any additional "strength" per se but it will add additional friction, to help hold things. Awesome project!
Plasti dip spray will add thin rubbery coat.

"Traction", not "friction".
Traction is the act of pulling something along a surface using motive power. Friction is what I meant. Two surfaces rubbing against one another. 🙂

For a future version, making an acrylic led color changing nail to match your nail polish would be hella cool.
this is a cool idea
Even better. Get a small flexible display that can wrap around the curvature of the fingernail. That way she can get some cool designs on the nail. She can design it on her computer and test it on the finger... then if she likes it she can paint the other nails to match :)
@@JustQzen At this stage, she can also start putting in a working welding laser ...
Never watched you before and for that I have regret! I have some catching up to do, this is a brilliant video, the style of camerawork and the way you go through everything - perfect! I have subscribed.
Nice job! Very intuitive on your part to create something that helps you regain a bit of what you lost. Cool idea with the light, have you thought about using micro wires? small as hair’s.
This is awesome! My grandfather lost his own pinky in an odd boating accident. He actually trapped the pinky in his boats door, and just pulled it off. Didn't even notice until he saw a puddle of blood. He joked about it all the time. Loved giving "high fours", loved joking about how his finger was waiting for him in heaven. Where ever he is, he's smiling at this. He would have loved it. I love it too! Straight outta night city!
I'm sorry but how do you accidently trap your pinky in a door and just accidently tear it off without noticing its trapped in the door? Genuine question

@@Shinychicken1000 and the shock can confuse you if it’s that severe but your body knows what happened just not you.
@@judgebeanos I... dunno, actually, TBH. My grandfather was a different sort of guy. He'd work in the military and industrial settings, and I think he had nerve damage in his hand, so he couldn't feel much, if anything at all.
He sounds like he was a pretty rad guy "high fours" lol
Honestly, I thought it was a birth defect. You seemed so comfortable with the loss.
But man, watching your face light up when you were testing it was just the most adorable thing! I never realized how important the pinky finger could be to basic life functions.
Yeah the pinky finger is responsible for 50% of your hand strength
Ya, same. I didn't even notice it the first couple of vidoes I watched. When I noticed, I also thought it was from birth. But when she actually showed the scars and stuff it all fell into place. The crouching in games and shifting with the keyboard would have been so hard to get used to, especially since I bascially sit here all day...
I really wish it was a birth defect than that kind of accident, the pain... 😱
the way you cyberpunk transformed at the ending gave me chills, like legit running up my spine ASMR. your original creativity and powerlevel as a content creator or cyborg sith or whatever you want to be is extreme. i pray that you will never turn to the dark side of the force and construct a death star or anything like that and just stay chill, you are the chosen one .
Honestly I think this looks awesome! Congrats on making your own prosthetic! Thats amazing! And the fact that it will help with even small tasks is huge! Good work girlie!
Severed my extensor tendon in my dominant hand last year. I'm an artist and I couldn't draw or write and I was so depressed. I am blown away by how positive and adaptive of your injury you are. It really goes to show what a positive mindset can do, so I'm going to see what I can do with my hand, instead of focusing on what I can't.
Wonder if there's a way to trick your brain into thinking that your non-dominant hand is now your dominant hand.
Would it be possible to train your non-dominant hand though?
When I was a small boy I had to spend over 3 years in a hospital due to a lot of health issues, so my aunt (who looks incredibly similar to Martina, both in looks and attitude) taught me to write. But the thing is that she's left-handed, and I didn't know any better and simply copied her. Well.. around 10 years later I realized that my left hand isn't actually my dominant hand but I've trained it so well that it practically is. Recently I started having bad carpal tunnel syndrome in my left wrist so I started learning to write with my right hand, it was super awkward at first as I didn't even know how to hold a pen with my right hand, but after months of practice, I can write with both hands now and there's very little difference between them, although it doesn't still feel fully comfortable
If graffiti taught me anything, it's that you can overcome insane obstacles for art, just look up the writer called Noks from Serbia! I wish you all the luck!
There’s professional text to talk software you can use for poetry, there’s singing, dancing, and for visual art you could go full pollock.
In art school we practiced doing sketches with our feet and non dominant hands as well as our mouths. It was a small exercise that got us to simplify the way we saw shapes and shading. If you try this you might be surprised by what you are capable of! I certainly learned a lot from it and I hope you can too! It felt like dancing with our body parts sometimes too. Things looked more abstract in a good way.
theres a guy on yt who after a work accident lost the majority of his fingers on one of his hands, throughout the years, hes been creating a bionic extention to replace those fingers that he lost, its honestly incredible and really fascinating what engineering can do if you keep working toward a main goal
Ian Davis
Saw this and thought “table saw” immediately. My grandpa said that that was the most dangerous tool in his shop.
Love your energy :) and really great work, good skills!
I love Martina's expression of pure joy when picking up objects
I just like the way she says "puten" as past tense for put.
I have been watching you guys for at LEAST 4 years and I've never noticed, I actually feel like an idiot but that maybe speaks for how eye-catching your art is. Also makes all your miniature model stuff even more impressive that you do it with 8 functional fingers!
And that pinky light is perfect for her tiny model projects it really is amazing her art and personality
9 actually, her right pinky is intact, otherwise she would've made one for her right hand as well
@@azmifarhan1257 she said her ring finger isn't functional due to the scarring and nerve damage that's where i got 8 from

nerver saw a video from you before and i have to say: Verry entertaining, well made and just cool!
Just when I think Martina can’t get any more badass, she goes and makes herself a cyberpunk cyborg finger prosthetic. This looks awesome!
Never noticed that you are missing a finger. Most important what I’ve really noticed, that you never lost your passion and creativity on Art.
That’s how heroes made, lose pieces of your body, but never forget who you are and what your goals are.

Just came across your first video today had to subscribe you’re awesome. Your personality is amazing. You’re fun to watch.
Honestly, I just figured you were born that way. I had a friend in high school who's left hand was missing all its fingers, and she just point blank told me when we met, "no there was no accident, I was born with my stump. But you're creative, help me come up with cool stories to trick people with." We were attached at the hip ever since.
This is some Joker inventing backstories to his scars level of hilarious.

@@maplelump Wha? You can't just say that and NOT elaborate!! Tell me that story, please!
STORY TIME STORY TIME STORY TIME!
Thoughts for making the finger more tactile:
Rubberise the fingertip. Make the fingertip easily replaceable now that it picks up dirt.
Redesign so that the weight of the mechanism is transferred somewhere you can feel. I think the initial design does this well, as the wristband would pull on your wrist, and the wire would dig into your knuckle . The wrist band needs to be redesigned so that it isn't awkward to put on with the glove. Maybe use a flexible filament and a shape like this C>. The wire digging into your knuckle is uncomfortable, so I think that adding a knuckle pad with a groove would be a good idea.
This comment right here^^
Normal people cry when lost a finger, you you laugh, you are the best thanks for this great moment
Huge love to the dedication and determination you had making this entire video in general💙
I had so much interest from the first second till the very end and full well deserved my sub. Theres so much more I wish I could properly display the words on your character but to put it simply, you iare FASCINATING.
Till the endpoint of the video I think we all knew that this mechanical finger wasnt of much to practical use but doing it for the heck of it was more than enough to be interesting. It was like exciting to watch. And exciting to know that there is more improvements yet to come practically as well in terms of technological improvement. People such as myself cant help but wonder about the cyberpunk tech that could fit in there and you nailed the aesthetic and goal behind it from an initial standpoint.

The joy on your face just melted my heart. ❤❤
7:33 that shot of you working on the half-assembed finger while wearing it is just so damn cool, true cyberpunk field maintenance vibe. straight outta sci-fi comic
So true! Sort of reminds me of the automail maintenance scenes from Fullmetal alchemist :D
@@8unnylover WAS JUST ABOUT TO SAY THAT
@@sova1235 YESSSSS
Hi, is Cyberpunk a Anime series or movie?
@@WUTANG-CLAN I think in this instance they were referring to the genre rather than the specific media, but there is both a video game (Cyberpunk 2077, was apparently disappointing), and an anime series (Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, is apparently pretty good)
"Ah, thank you. My little friend!"
I legit teared up at that. I'm so glad you got a prosthetic that works! And you made it yourself; that's so awesome!
The extra changes to the og template are crazy! You really made it work for you. Love engineering
Wow, you are amazingly creative 😁 love your posts. Thank you for sharing 💕
When life hands you lemons, make a starwars tier cybernetic prosthetic from it. I love her unadulterated joy at doing regular hand things. Makes me appreciate my hands more.
Same also your comment is above RUclips commenting. Pretty epic man 👍
"When life HANDS you..." wow, low blow.
But yea, the joy she gets from this is part of what makes the video entertaining
Having work in STEM my whole career and now retired seeing a young women like you so passionate, talented and creative is a real inspiration. There is nothing to the excitement of solving a problem, but the look on your face when you see your prosthetic working is above anything.
She is walking proof that the A belongs in that acronym.
i like how you matched your look this is an awesome origin story.
Love your content and you make awesome stuff!!
5:58 the way she gestures with the robo finger so naturally gives me a lot of hope for the future of 3D printed prosthetics!
12:55 too :D
watching this design continuously get cooler was amazing to watch 🤩
hi youtube lol
When RUclips itself recognizes how amazing of a creator you are
Huh hello youtube :)
damn RUclips’s here lmao and 100% agree
Fix your site susan
WoW amazing build and very well done video as well 👍🏼
VERY, VERY GOOD!!! an interesting idea, a valid project, and a lot of determination... and voilà the finger is done!!! congratulations also for the very interesting video as post-production editing... and then that red/purple hair is gorgeous, it gives that touch of creativity that couldn't be missing. Best wishes from Rome
Your “party trick” made me smile a lot actually, the fact you can joke about it means that you are still comfortable with yourself, which is wonderful
Well it’s a proven fact that amputees are the funniest people on Earth!

They're single handedly the funniest.
Fantastic engineering! The Knick finger is a WAY better version of a design I created & submitted to the public domain close to 10 years ago. Now you've taken it and made it even better still! As an artist and engineer, it's gratifying to see people take an initial concept I had, keep what works, throw out what doesn't and improve it so much.
Thank you for detailing how you did this!!
Im glad you still have your spirit up.
This is amazing! I’ve been watching your videos for a few weeks now but my 14 year old daughter has been watching you longer and showed me this video. Your so good at everything and my daughter and I love watching you! ☺️
It’s one of the few things we agree on now lol 💜
I don't understand how I was so busy watching you make stuff that I didn't notice you missing most of a finger, just goes to show how amazing your work is
I love how chill you are about missing a finger. I gained +10 body positivity just by watching this video.
congrats for your little (huge) victory! im so interested about prostetics like this. you ever thought about upgrade the finger? maybe a screwdriver finger, modular parts, or use hidraulics or some inflatable exoskeleton to give it more holding strenght! i saw some video using something like this and sensors/patches in the muscles in the forearm to make an entire hand, now you have the knowledge, dont limit it! will be so interesting discover how the world can change with things like this, what a time to be alive!
This was so cool to watch and also reminded me of one of my favorite ASMR videos (the Gibi automail mechanic one).
I love how you've made a healthy recovery physically and mentally afterwards, and I am now ready to see the crafty magic begin, let's do this!
Vid watched, very fun
Moments like her exploring the glove and the joy a tiny finger can bring really brings to perspective just how much we take for granted sometimes
For real. Seeing the joy of finger on the glove not flopping is... Well made me consider a similar prosthetic. We'll see. Im nowhere near tech savvy 😅
wanting to hold the jockely atmosphere she has, i need to say it is for granted that we have 10 fingers :)))))))))
I watched your videos even before the creation of the internet and I never EVER noticed that you lost a finger.
It's a mix of feelings. Surprised, a little sad for your pain and glad that you got through it and always present your work with passion.
Ich schau deine Videos schon 2-3 Jahre. Du bist eine unglaubliche Frau.
Du kannst sehr stolz auf dich sein.
Mach weiter und bleib so wie du bist.
I noticed the missing pinkie at some point but figured if you wanted us/me to know whether you never had one from birth or lost it at some point, you'd make a video about it. This is the coolest way I could imagine ever to satisfy potentially curious minds while simultaneously sharing your process in creating a totally amazing cyberpunk glove! Well done!
