Enable in Haiti: Stories of Successes and Challenges about 3D Printing in the 3rd World
World Maker Faire 2015
May 18th-1st
What is e-NABLE? We are a global online community of over 5500 volunteers seeking to develop, design, customize, and fabricate 3D printed prosthetics for children... for free. We had the privilege of speaking last year at WMF2014 and want to share some of the exciting developments since then.
