synthetic bones for mechanical testing

[Kate Meyers]

I am interested in find an alternate source of synthetic bones for mechanical testing. I have a student in for the summer and have planned to perform some testing using the large 4th generation composite femurs produced by Sawbones, but they are out of stock until mid-August (after the student leaves). Does anyone know of another vendor or have composite femur that they are willing to sell?

Thank you in advance for your help,
Kate Meyers
