The color of the plates really doesn't matter, and I think it would look better in a metallic silver.

It follows the anatomy of the human palm and is able to perfectly replicate the posture of the palm in action.

Build the Robot Hand and investigate what pressure is needed to hold different objects without dropping or crushing them.Special hands, such as pirate hooks in several different colours and boxing gloves have also been made. Some things require the hand to be sideways, generally in this case I have the flat side on the inside and curved side on the outside of the minifig. Industry and hospitals often need to handle and move objects that can be dangerous to touch by hand. I used dark red and light gray styling, largely because that's the color I had for the finger joints and then I decided to keep going with it for the rest of the model. Also, I made a left hand because I'm left-handed, but you could just switch a couple pieces around to put the thumb on the other side.

Some LEGO® sets contain small parts that are NOT suitable for and may pose a hazard to children under 3 years of age.

Cos I look at my hands and when they are curled the top part is naturally curved and shorter cos of the thumb. They have been made with a variety of colours and have come with every minifigure from 1978 until 1989, and are still in usage from 1989 to the present time. Experiment by adding different materials to the Robot Hand for a better and safer grip that also causes less damage. First, predict how much pressure the Robot Hand needs to lift the different objects without damaging them.

In addition, it's neat to see how the joints in a real hand work through a Lego interpretation of one.
