Default Pirate peg leg

Problem isn't with BKA or AKA to the ground for peg. The problem
is if your socket isn't exactly right you'll end up quickly with a painful,
bloody mess that won't heal.
Google the problems that people sometimes have with one that are
supposed to fit.
Check local community support organizations.



I am amputee, & have googled those,but was wondering has anyone ever
made one ? my just regular old plain leg, no fancy movable ankle or
foot cost $ 9,000.00 , that includes socket + roll on liner. up to date
c-leg ( has micro chip )
cost 40,000 . socket is what u put your stump in & is cast from your
stump , usually carbon fibre,
Live long & prosper ,
