WOW!!!!

A 13-year-old boy in Utah has just spent his ENTIRE SUMMER building a custom wheelchair for a 21-month-old baby girl he's never met.

His name is Zac Waters.

He watched a YouTube channel about 3D printing and decided he wanted to do something with it.

So he found MakeGood, a nonprofit that 3D prints assistive devices for people with disabilities, and got to work.

He spent over 300 HOURS, designing, printing, testing. and assembling.

...but he didn't just build a chair, he custom-designed it specifically for her

He custom printed pink accents, because pink is her favorite color.

He built her a removable cupholder and tray table. He designed a space in the back for heavier medical equipment.

He gave her soft, bendable straps so they don't dig into her, he even designed an adjustable footrest and headrest so it grows with her as she does.

When they asked him why he did it, he said it combines his two favorite things in life: 3D printing and helping people in need.

He's THIRTEEN YEARS OLD.

Only young whites think about others. Young blacks think about stealing.

Amazing kid raised right. The world needs more of him, less of the rest. Unfortunately, he will probably end up dead when one of the angry chocolates loses their shit at a waffle house or wally world and goes on a shooting spree.

By the time he finished 3d printing it, the kid had outgrown it.

@MisterProgneto Probably! We all do dumb shit when we are kids, but at least his heart is in the right place.

Not to be a dick, but he could have got a wheelchair for free on Craigslist, and he wouldn't have had to spend a thousand hours printing a plastic wheelchair that will fail before winter. Jus sayin.

His heart's in the right place, but you gotta budget your time.

You'll NEVER see nonwhites serving Whites like this. Whites need to take care of our own, nobody else is going to do it. Also, I want to see White newscasters.
