Unbelievable--it's been well over 2 years since I took that lefty / righty poll......and now ( finally ) you come outa the closet !!! Well, here's news for you then.......I had strongly suspected such all along........ The ones that are not righthanded ... Same for my sockets G. -- Cliff Are your adjustable wrenches metric, or regular? Later, Charlie As a side note, I was working in a machine shop yesterday that was having new networking cabling and whatnot installed. The apprentice installer was missing his right arm, and was using the old style lever/cable pinchers prothesis. We discussed his ability to hold tools (he is right handed...er..hooked) and I made some suggestions/drawings about inhancing his prosthesis with a quick change tool holder, punch down tool, power screw driver etc etc. It seems he will be fitted shortly for a myoelectic unit to control servos in a completly new prosthesis, and would check into it as it would be a very useful mod. Given the numbers of new amputees coming back from the war, this might perhaps be something someone would care to investigate further as a business opportunity and service. Im considering this myself, but havnt a clue as to where to start even the basic research. Gunner |
