Experiment with a new mechanical hand. Construct a simplified hand with 5 fingers and a thumb. Train the hand (and your hand) to work and play. Construct a marionette that it can control. Invent a game it can play and a job it can do. Teach it "music" on drums, strings and a xylophone.
Then hack the design. Draw new fingers or claws for another hand whose purpose you have designed. The LASER cutter will make those parts ready for your experiments.
