It's been harder for me to stand up from the floor without something to grab on to. I got the idea from when I was putting wood in the stove. Just that extra boost really helps. Here's a short video and some pictures, Let me know what you think. I call it the Assistant, two sizes 1" x 12" and 2" x 12" Made from Delrin, very tough stuff





Here are a few more pictures showing wearing and using the Assistant















In addition to help getting up it can be a very usable self defense tool being made of Delrin very tough. The base is designed after a goat hoof with a soft inner and hard outer shell so it maintains a good grip on hard sufaces
If you have any questions feel free to PM me

You would do well to just use the one with the wider base! Easier on the hands! Very clever, sir!!

What are you getting for them.

I'm interested in one of the 2" diameter "Assistants"

Great idea.

Real good idea. I keep a fold up chair by my wood burner. Makes it easy starting the fire and adding wood when needed. If I have to lay down outside, working on the mowers or anything I have a 5 gallon bucket that makes it a lot easier getting back up. At 77 years old one has to plan everything you do.

I'll keep that in mind in case something happens to my squaw.
She's part Cherokee and she is the meanest you-know-what whoever did you-no-what for beads. Strong back though,
She goes by "Two Slaps", but only once, to her face. When she gets mad, all of a sudden you end up with two red marks on you and you don't know where they came from.

Looks good, but what do you do for your other hand, lol
I usually crawl to the nearest chair, bucket or other strong vertical object, lol a cane works too...but got to hand it to you, it's better than laying on the floor waiting for someone to help...

I tried to load a short video on wearing and using it but I can't get the video to work. I will take more pictures in a series laterr today or tomorrow I have to go to dialysis today and tha's an all day deal for me.Thank you for the interest, I'll post more information when I can

I put the a video on Facebook Under my name John DiPrizio

I am 47 but got busted up in an accident , I kept my fishing bucket in the kitchen near the fridge with the swivel top seat it is just a 360 degree silent swivel hunting bucket top on a 7 gallon Cabela's bucket so it is "comfort height"
I don't need it like I did after the accident but it is still there for now , it was in front of the wood stove but I haven't hauled wood since the accident either , had to wait for things to heal up before lifting anything heavy.

I had the fishing bucket because it lets me sit in the bow of my john boat and operate my foot control trolling motor well and swivel and fish

No wonder you’re always about a week behind on some of the posts!!!

Two Slaps knocks you out!

MTtraps, I used my hammer today in the same manner, and thought of you as I did it.

You are much more handsome than I imagined ! If i see you at the Town Pump I will give you a thumbs up . Good Luck

Better to be slapped than smashed I reckon.

After making some sets if it wasn’t for my 5 gallon pail I might still be there my back doesn’t take well to bending over for long periods of time.

A good idea!

If you're looking for field testers or pro staffers, count me in to try one of them out and give the TMan crew a full report !

Well I tried to do an updated post but it ran into trouble and was deleted from the shed and talk forums. Maybe private message any questions would be OK?

His ad for it was deleted because it was unsolicited advertising on here and a violation of Rule#4 in the Trap Shed.

I'm sure he would give you pricing details if you PM'd him.

….. I liked it MT …. May order one so I can stay strapped to keep the wife in line
