Liz should hawe the picts, and something of an explaination. If you want the picts or info, email me. The thing that I didn't write in my email to Liz is that the whole contraption goes under a loose shirt fairly well, but it is best to not have it against your skin, so you should wear either a long sleeve t-shirt or a sock on your arm under the plastic. The arm is fitted to you by a prothesticss outfit, so they aren't cheap,unless you have a friend who does arm casts. I would think any prosthetic outfit could put together the parts. The harness is a very common one for hanging prosthetic arms, and the hand/glove is stock stuff, but you will have to manufacture the hook on the hand and on the belt. Leave the hook loose enough to pivot.
If your local prosthetics outfit can't find the stuff, let me know and I will ask mine were she got it.

I just sent them to you about an hour ago. Getting a rope on the photographer is sometimes difficult. This digital business picture business is new to me, so let me know if you didn"t get them.
Did you get my other email from earlier in the week?

I didnt think of this at first, but my brace dr has been building me custom braces for a year, we are so close t being perfect. At first it was a gun harness type sling that kept weight on good side. Then told him i want my arm to hang at my side but be up in socket and also support neck. He took full body calf and made this perfect device, that keeps arm from sublexing and also keeps neck up. Then i told him i wanted the neck piece to move up and down with my head. Which work great now he is building it to be able to move up and down with my head and left and right. He built it from taking a body cast of me. Never have pain in inner elbow from always being in sling form. If anyone would like me to show them pics just let me know. I have had 4 differnt custom braces made on top of my product baces.
