Aiming to finish early with the muscles

A project log for Reusable Graphene Silver Gel EMG Pads

I am trying to make reusable EMG pads that have a gel like consistency and are reusable once soaked in electrolyte.

I am aiming to finish this early as I need all the parts for the final build of the prosthetic hand. This will be the ultimate build to put a smile on some lucky kids face.

The necessity of a reusable higher performance EMG is paramount for any legitimate prosthesis.

I have been having problems with the PVA and DMSO, ie the PVA coagulates but this may not matter, I don't know more testing is needed.

I will be aiming for this to be done by the end of citizen scientist.

If you find yourself at the Artificial Limb Company, be very careful about how you go about asking for spare parts... I hear they don't think it's funny.
