61 Degrees of Freedom

I sat down with a sketchpad and came up with lots of frenzied scribbles, which aren’t as pretty as this ’shopping of the samething- which joints are where, and how many there are.

Technically, it’ll be something less; the fingers will tighten in sequence depending upon cable friction and spring resistance, so each of them can be mashed into one DOF.
