The story began with a young mother who had three sons. Unfortunately, the youngest son developed slow thinking skills, not having the intelligence of his brothers.

The words and curses he got from the mother and ridicule from friends convinced him that he was distressing and embarrassing his family. Every morning he woke up with his own face staring from the mirror reflection, he started to say quietly and sadly, “The fool is going to school.”

Given that he had just launched 3 pillar Designs, Terence somewhat hesitated to take on a duckling as his first client(客户）. But as soon as he saw brave little Dudley walking around on one leg, Terence knew he had to do something. Using his biomedical engineering training, Terence spent the next few weeks creating a 3D template （模板）, after he found out how ducks’ legs worked in YouTube videos about ducks. Once ready, he sent them to Ontario-based 3Dengineering firm Proto3000, who agreed to print the leg.
