EDIT 20/03/2014 : Added an "Opposable Thumb" version of the body.
EDIT 24/01/2015: Added a Thermoform Gauntlet that can be printed flat in PLA and gently heated to be bent into shape.
EDIT 15/12/2014: Added wide and standard thermoform mesh for the palm area. Very useful for the "Thumbless" versions where velcro attachments becomes more difficult trying to route a thumb through the palm pocket too. This is an excellent example of thermoform PLA : http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:403001
EDIT 18/09/2014 : Added a "Wider Wrist Thumbless" version of the Hand Body.
EDIT 08/09/2014 : Added a "Thumbless" version of the Hand Body, for those that still have a usable thumb.
EDIT 19/08/2014 : Uploaded a Hand Body and Gauntlets (short and long) with a 10mm wider across wrist dimension.
EDIT 12/08/2014 : Added "feet" to the flexible wrist hinge, to help increase the glue surface area.
EDIT 29/07/2014 : Increased the tendon hole diameters from 2mm to 3mm when printed at full scale. To help printing at smaller scales.
EDIT 16/07/2014 : Put hole in base of finger hinge (7.stl) so that it can be inserted into hand body easier.
EDIT 08/07/2014 : Sculpted out the socket more to make it larger.
EDIT 07/07/2014 : Updated the profile of the base hinges for the fingers (7.stl). This new profile, requires less force to close the fingers, yet it is shaped to better aid finger return.
