Wood Trick Robotic Hand Creation

Wood Trick has a new project in the works called the Robotic Hand Kit. The company primarily creates 3D wood models aimed at children as alternatives to tablets and video games to encourage overall brain development. The Robotic Arm is suggested for ages 14 and older, but it can also be enjoyed by adults who may be more interested in social media challenges and video games like Call of Duty.

The Wood Trick Robotic Hand Kit is a project that Wood Trick has up its sleeve. Most of their 3D wood models are geared towards kids as tablet and video game alternatives that will promote their "comprehensive brain development." The Robotic Arm is recommended for ages 14 and up, but will probably serve the "and ups" just as well, if not better, than the teens who are more interested in posting challenge vids on Instagram and playing Call of Duty. The Wooden Robotic Hand is a fun Halloween project and an even more fun way to eat snacks and annoy my in-laws when they invite us over for Sunday's NFL season openers. Laser cut all over it, I wonder how much popcorn I could scoop up with a giant skeletal hand made of birch plywood. Probably about 3 times more than I can get in my mouth before dropping or having it fall through the cracks all over their carpet. Heh, heh, heh. But think of the fun you'd have whipping out a Wooden Robotic Hand to assist with a presentation at work! Or to assist with tickle time in the bedroom! When put together correctly - just the 199 pieces of wood and rubber bands required - the Wood Trick Robotic has fully-articulated fingers that can perform tasks such as hand shakes, high fives and fist bumps, and gripping items like remote controls and bouquets of flowers for your mama.
