Plush anatomical knee

Posted by Cory Doctorow, March 27, 2009 5:29 AM | permalink

Becky Stern has followed up her plush model of her damaged femur with a complete, anatomically correct plush knee. Go Becky! She adds, "I used elastic to give the ligaments realistic stretch, and even gave it the capability to dislocate, just like my real knee. Built using anatomical models and the pictures my doctor took from inside my knee during surgery as references."

Plush Knee (Thanks, Becky!)

I love the idea of this, even if it is making me feel faint.

Now she should do a plush anatomically correct steampunk knee! You know, like, rivets and brass and things! That would be the height of awesome!

When I was pregnant the first time and taking birthing classes, my husband and I could not control our giggles when they introduced the "knitted uterus." Yes, it was like a sweater in uterus-form, and it still makes me laugh today. Thanks for this post which brought back that silly memory.

No, can't understand it.
What is it good for, again?
