About this print
A set of articulated extensions worn over the fingers of the hand, adding length to each digit and allowing the joints to move naturally. The narrow, multi-segmented design is intended to accept separate printed covers or skins in different styles. The pieces are sized for a specific hand and will likely need scaling to fit the wearer. TPU provides flexibility for the wearable segments, making the extensions more comfortable than a rigid material would.

My take on Gary Fay's articulated fingers extentions.
I've made the fingers as thin as I could so I can add differents 3d printed skins later (like a skeleton skin, a monster skin, an evil witch skin, etc.).
I know the thumb isn't suppose to have that many phalanx but I thought it was spookier like this.
Those are custom-made for my hands so you'll have to adapt them for you.
My hands (length of fingers from inner webbing to the top) :
• Thumb 70mm
• Index finger 80mm
• Middle finger 85mm
• Ring finger 85mm
• Pinky finger 60mm
Width of my fingers are around 20mm.
I used filament for all the axis. Easy to cut to any size needed. Burn each end and squeeze them.
