Christian Ristow‘s jaw-droppingly amazing Hand of Man was ‘on hand’ at Maker Faire, crushing barrels with ease! In the above vid, he shares some details about the massive mechanical appendage and its human interface. I didn’t get a chance to actually pilot the hand but it looked like the attendees who did had a whole lot of fun. Be sure to check out Christian’s site for some other examples of his work.
