How to make a prosthetic leg

I am a prosthetic tech by trade. So the other day I thought it would be cool to take some pictures and do a little write up on my website. Hopefully this will give you an idea what goes into making someone walk again.

thats kind of interesting. I was expecting something a bit more realistic but I am surprised with the carbon cloth you all use. Its huge!

Carbon Dave or PUCK…it is weird, your link on here does not work for me but on the Cal-look forum it does and both I’m using Mozilla Firefox?:confused:

This particular patient wanted to be able to see the components. This is also the reason for the carbon fiber finish. Most are laminated with pigment and finished with a cosmetic cover. The cover is then shaped to match the patients existing limb.

Everyone on here, you also get to see Puck’s CF 4bbl carb turbo adapter on the ACVW’s Pink’s show on May 17th on Speed Channel too! :wink:

I can’t wait to see the show.
