Grip Setting Tutorials?


Pete Silverman

Recommended Posts

I've been looking unsuccessfully for tutorials on the different settings for grippers that would describe and show each and talk about the relative merits of each. I'm a newcomer to grippers, working on closing the #2, and the posts I've been able to find on the forum have been advanced calculus while I'm looking for intro math.

There are no tutorials as such on the GB.

TNS: table no set-pick up gripper and squeeze the handles close without assisting with the other hand in positioning it in your hand...hardest of all

CCS: credit card set-set the gripper in your hand with the other then insert a credit card width wise to assure that u have got at least credit card width between handles....then close......2nd hardest way to close

MM: Mash Monster-set gripper in your hand with the other and get handles no closer than parallel....then mash the handles together.....easiest way to close the gripper.....

There's a big FAQ section you should read it thoroughly

If you've got big hands don't bother setting it.

Or if not the KTA programm is a good tutorial.

Just out of curiosity, what constitutes 'big hands' ?

Two people can keep a secret if one of them is dead.

Thanks for your response. I actually looked through the FAQ section but could find nothing this direct and to the point. Unless I missed it, your post would be a good one to add to the FAQ for newbies.

I would say 8 inches plus from base of hand to the end of your longest finger but others may disagree with me.
