perrymk Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I ordered a G-Rex 621 Gripper made by forum sponsor Sorinex today. Instead of the single perpendicular handle in the middle and opposite the pinch plates, I opted for two perpendicular handles, one at each end. This way I can train both hands at the same time either in parallel (perpendicular handles) or in line (regular handle). It is a bit pricey. Ordered online it's $265 plus about $60 shipping for a total of $325. My custom work (exta perpendicular handle) added $25 but calling in my credit card number got me a better shipping price of $40. Total $330. Really not that bad for custom work. A made in China gripper of comparable weight capacity will run over $200 and not have the perpendicular handles or the pinch plate. I'm not anti-China, just pro-US. I suppose if I lived in France I'd be pro-France. You get the picture; I'll get off my soapbox now. Finally, 1. Found money (US Economic Stimulus package) is meant to be spent. The rest is going to my vet for my dog's recent and unanticipated needs. She's doing fine now. 2. USA made so stimulating the US economy. That's the idea, right? 3. Support forum sponsors so support the forum. 4. I really, really want one.
