I was just wondering if anyone has come across this prosthetic socket kit on
eBay.
<URL Redacted>
To think the average person can cast, modify and fabricate their own
prosthetic socket is ridiculous.
The person selling these kits is obviously in the O&P field in some
capacity. He uses some common terms although he fails to understand what a
prostheticist actually does. A modern prosthetic device is just an
over-priced bunch of nuts. bolts and carbon fiber casting
I would love to hear everyone's thoughts. If nothing more than for a good
laugh.
