A man from New Zealand was able to get the idea of having fingers when using a hand prosthesis , made by Touch ##e . The design , which is made of a hand and two joints , replaced the use of the three fingers he lost in a fishing accident three years ago , and allowed him to complete tasks such as holding a coffee cup and writing his name . One of them is Dunedin man Gavin Wilson, who lost his right hand in a fabric shredder four years ago. The $ 100,000 ( NZD ) prosthesis will now be to be sent back to Scotland so it can be manufactured .
