AFFORDABLE Shoulder Model..Pros & Cons
The Model is anatomically accurate for the actual shoulder anatomy & bone surfaces, BUT- the cross section of the humerus has NO anatomical similarity to true bone cross section-offering NO anatomical reference. The end of the cross sectioned bone is just molded flat plastic with a mold seam. The muscle attachments are slightly flexible-& very tight, offering NO actual range of motion-only minimal bits of movement. The muscle attachments are fixed-probably with a strong glue or heat fixed. There are no charts or anatomical labeling included with the purchase. The model CAN be detached from the screw-on plastic base. The female threads are in the underneath of the proximal side of the scapula, allowing the metal rod to attach to the model. These are only "tap-threaded" into the plastic bone area.( a poor design). When trying to reattach the metal rod into the model it is very easy to mis-thread the plastic threaded insertion & strip out the hole into which the rod from the stand is to be screwed..This could be remedied with a metal female threaded screw insertion from a hardware store IF one can find a corresponding thread size matching the rod threads-but a hole would have to be bored out in the plastic bone to do this. Big job-I didn't do this. Although I had a very hard time aligning the threads & re-screwing the base rod into the underneath of this shoulder model. I will put some weight on the base- I suggest 2inch heavy rectangular magnets one on the top & one under the base-let the magnets attract each other through the 1/8th inch thick plastic base. This model is a good size for education purposes. It arrived quickly & is affordable..Just received it today- If I decide to keep it, I believe it will have a long life in education...with my other plastic body parts.

I don't like it
It is not durable at all, range of motion is TOO small, I don't really like it. Two stars just because delivery was on time and properly packed.

INACCURATE
Inaccurate anatomy. Clavicle is not constructed properly. Acromuon is too short. Misrepresents glenohumeral joint.

Not accurate
The clavicle bone is put on incorrectly. Had to return.

Perfectly Accurate Model
I bought this for my niece’s class project. She couldn’t be any happier. She said it is what she is looking for. The model is anatomically precise and in perfect condition. She ace her project!
