to check that out this weekend. I don't have internet access at home, so
I'll try to get some pics of what I do have this weekend and put them up on
Monday.
Getting the right length and attachment points to make it work for the
intended purpose without limiting other ranges of motion is the hard part.
Have a good weekend!
