Hi everyone - I was given the opportunity to present my experiences with the e-nable platform as a maker and designer. The meetup was held at FabLab Breda in the Netherlands and visited by, printing enthusiasts, 3D designers and professionals in prosthetic development and design. Personally I learned a lot from the interaction, feedback and I believe there was great reception on the project.

Please find herewith a link to the presentation as a video. The presentation is in dutch, but a translated version is in the making.

I would love to get responses on this presentation and If you have experiences with e-Nable or in need for someone (me :smiley: ) to help you out with communications or info please let me know.

Great work @martinv77
I’ll share this on twitter to help you with some extra exposure!

Thank you once again!

Thanks for sharing, Martin! Any takeaways from the meeting? Or advice for Hubs that would be interested in getting involved with E-Nable? Cheers

Yes for sure:

- I think reception was great and people interested in helping the e-nable platform will definitely take a step forward.

- People were surprised the platform has a great level of professionalism and is not just a group of 3D printing enthusiasts. On the contrary the printer community is a small part and people can help in many ways.

- Sharing your own perspective and motivation really helps. Explain what’s in it for you, not just the recipient of the e-nable hand. I think people really appreciated this view.

- Professionals in prosthesis and orthotics are embracing the concept and see opportunity. They don’t see it as hobbyists interfering with their business.

- If you need to develop a custom hand - Function before Form - is the mantra. The aesthetics are important, but secondary.

- Furthermore the interaction is inspiring and helped me develop the concepts and direction for current and future projects.

And much, much more

Cheers

Martin
