I have had the honor of working with Mr. Scott Winkler...i built him a new chair a few months back....and just made him a new extension for his new chair....that may give him an edge to break the records he deserves to break....his heart and determination hopefully will allow him to do that. i have built other chairs for other U.S. Paralympians...notably Jeannette Thompson...the U.S. womens champion....she is winning the world. getting ready to make another for another U.S. Paralympic out of Luosiana...hopefully we can get her among the top also. I pay for this out of my pocket...which is no big deal...the gov will buy standard chairs....which cost 2K for these athletes....but the red tape makes it a year long wait and chairs are made of steel...i make them out aluminum....a complete rip off...the gov is...i can make them for about $350....im reducing the deficit ;D anyway...if anyone would like to put about $2 dollars towards the cost of material....i sure would appreciate it...kev. www.scottwinklerusa.com

Kev, I remember when you posted a few months back of the chairs you build. Bless your heart and shame on our govt! I would love to contribute.
Sending you a pm.
