Is it myoelectric or body-powered? Hook, simple hand or articulated hand? And does it have a wrist rotator and/or flexor?I wear a prosthetic myself and as a high school chemistry teacher I'm more or less on my own when managing lab equipment. I've got a lot of experience with a variety of terminal devices, but any advice I've got would depend on the terminal device in use.Let me know. I'd be happy to help out if I can.Semper Fi,Bryan ForneyLtCol, USMC (Ret)Science Teacher, Innovation Central High SchoolGrand Rapids, MIOn Thu, Mar 18, 2021, 15:22 Patrick A Ceas <00001218cb57e854-dmarc-request**At_Symbol_Here**lists.princeton.edu> wrote:--- For more information about the DCHAS-L e-mail list, contact the Divisional membership chair at membership**At_Symbol_Here**dchas.org Follow us on Twitter **At_Symbol_Here**acsdchaspastHi all,A student's prosthetic hand has been damaged (not lab related) and unfortunately they now have very limited ability to grasp/steady items such as graduated cylinders, flasks, etc. Does anyone know of some sort of countertop item that could help stabilize graduated cylinders and other "tippy" items? I can imagine a few creative designs but I would rather have a commercial ADA-type product if possible. I've done a small bit of online searching but no luck so far; I'm probably not using the correct search words.ThanksPat
