Just before Thanksgiving 2013, Mick Ebeling returned home from Sudan’s Nuba Mountains where he
set up what is probably the world’s first 3D-printing prosthetic lab and training facility. More to
the point of the journey is that Mick managed to give hope and independence back to a kid who, at
age 14, had both his arms blown off and considered his life not worth living.
Just prior to the trip, the now 16-year-old Daniel was located in a 70,000 person refugee camp in
Yida, and, on 11/11/13, he received version 1 of his left arm. The Daniel Hand enabled him to feed
himself for the first time in two years. He ate chocolate for the first time.
