Hello All,
Posted this on TBPI.(They rock).Thought I'd share.Hope everyone is well !! Question.Before my accident I was known to use my knee quite a bit when driving.Not supposed to,but oh well.
Anyway,Do any of you use your knee or upper leg to help out?The reason I ask is that I have made an attachment that craddels the leg just enuff to keep it from slipping off when you need to use it.The unit is small,cushioned,and easy to remove.Can be made to fit any steering wheel.
Just testing the water a bit.Trying to help a little when I can.Is It illegal anywhere Thanks All!
Oh,Have come up with niffty way to put on a clasp on wrist watch.Can send pics to show unless everyones already done it but me.See Ya!

Marshall,
I drive with my knee all the time. Could you send me a pic of what you are talking about. I am not sure I am picturing it correctly.
Thanks,

I drive with my knee every day. To and from work 100 miles m-f. I guess I could put my coffee in a camelback, buttt...My Prius is easy to drive with my knee but my Prerunner steering wheel is slippery. So if you have a prototype of your gadget, feel free to email it. I'm always on the lookout for ways to improve my quality of life. Last week I found this really cool beer and soda bottle opener. You set it on the cap, push down, and the top pops off easily. Still trying to motorize my pooper-scooper. Any thoughts would be appriciated....Karl...
