    <div align="center">Wired hand, v1!</div>



    I started messing around with hydraulics and such and this was the end result. It worked fairly well and didn&#39;t lag as horribly as I thought it would have. The thumb was awkward... very. Also about halfway through I noticed that each finger had only 2/3rds of the movement it should.

    Independent finger movement


    Have fun with posing. Flick people off from across the map!


    <div align="center">Improvements with next version(s):</div>
    Expression gate: I know how to use it, I didn&#39;t because I like to prototype with regular gates.
    More Finger movement: I&#39;ll get that finger segment to move.
    Better Thumb: One that actually works.
    Save Poses: Ok, maybe I don&#39;t know how, but I can probably figure it out.
    <div align="center">
    FAQ:</div>
    Q:Can I download it?
    A:No, sorry, I made this on my server and it had so many problems that I decided not to make a save. If people want, I&#39;ll make saves of later versions.

    Q:What does it use?
    A: Just Phx and Wire, nothing extra.

    Q:
    How do you control it?
    A:A panel with buttons on it. it&#39;s kinda awkward, but I couldn&#39;t think of a better way. Each movable joint has a button, either extend or contract. You can see Gman using it in one picture.

    Q:Does this have any real point?
    A:No, not really. but it&#39;s cool.

    Q:The thumb sucks.
    A:That&#39;s not a question.

    Q:The thumb sucks! You have no friends!
    A:The sad thing is, I&#39;m writing both the questions and the answers.

    Also tried making a hand at one time, but I gave up on it. I was also using three bars for each finger, but some larger bars for the palm, since it looked more like a skeleton hand that way.

    Regional synonym? Like how some places you&#39;ll hear "soda" instead of "pop" or "soft drink".
