EDIT : 16/01/2015 : Uploaded all 5 fingers from [Flexy-Hand](http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:242639) which can be printed with support on their ends orientated at 45deg. These give a great print using customisable supports in [CraftWare](http://www.craftunique.com/craftware).
EDIT : 07/08/2014 : Uploaded all 5 fingers and fingertips from [Flexy-Hand](http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:242639) which can be printed with support on their side. Optimised integral hinges, so there is no visible "dogbone" cut-out in the phalanges.
