New-Style Steering Wheel "Spinner"
The problem with conventional knob-type spinners is that they have a tendency to cause cramping in the hand with repeated use. My new spinner is shaped like a pistol-grip, about 4 in. tall and 6 in. wide, to make using it more comfortable. It clamps to the steering wheel of your tractor or other equipment just like a conventional spinner.
My prototype is made out of aluminum, but production units will be made of heavy-duty plastic. We think they'll sell for around $15. (David Reicks, Reicks Manufacturing, R.R. 1, Box 79, Lebanon, Kan. 66952; ph 785 745-2505)
