A simple tool for Arthritic Hands

[mklotz]

Interesting. I wonder if some sort of adjustable multi-handle is viable. And, is it reasonable to flute or knurl a sphere?

I am reminded of the time I wondered if I could dip my finger in glue, and then in sand, and use it for fine detail sanding. Perhaps not my single greatest idea, but it did lead me to this unusual item (gimmickiness as yet unknown):

I would think that some form of indexing, at least for certain types of tools, would be useful for orienting the working face of the tool.

Knife handles are often judged by how well they index the knife edge to the location where the user expects it to be located. Same for a file or scraper. Probably not needed for a screwdriver which is typically indexed visually.

The sandpaper gloves look useful although unthinkingly scratching certain parts of the anatomy might prove painful :-)

Shouldn't be hard to fabricate a test glove.
