Texas girl gets 3-D prosthetic limb from public library
After spending more than a year on a waiting list for a functional prosthetic hand, a Texas girl's needs were met by her local public library-- which happens to have a 3-D printing lab. Katelyn Vincik, 5, was born with a left hand that wasn't fully formed, but hasn't let that difference slow her down, Click 2 Houston reported. "She's very determined, she does everything," her mother, Kimberly Vincik, told the news channel. "It's never held her back." But during her nightly prayers, Katelyn always asks when the doctors will fix her hand.
