Patsy Smith, a woman in her 50s from Mississippi.(raise) ducks for many years. She makes a living by(sell) duck eggs. One of her ducks, Peg, is a bit different from other ducks.
When Peg was young, one of his legs(bite) off by a dog. Days later,wound on his leg started to become infected. So Mrs. Smith put out a call for help around North America to seethere was a possibility that anyone could create a new leg for Peg. When some eighth-grade students learned of the situation they decided to take action! They thought they might be able to use their 3D printer(create) an artificial leg for Peg. Three of the students asked for more(detail) information about Peg. Then they spent several(month) creating and testing different models. It turned out to be a lot more complexthey had thought.
Finally, their effort paid off and they created a model that fitted Peg's leg(perfect)! Now, Peg can walk and run just like his duck buddies! And Mrs. Smith is very grateful to them.
