    Default New Wheelchair from New Zealand

    Gents this has just come to light for me and I know some here have interest in people who might just get a boost if they had something like this.
    Mind you if you watch both videos it shows a great deal of the guys workshop machines etc as well.

    I'm not disabled but I'd love to have a go in that chair. Wonderful use of technology.

    Looks to be a great aid for those who have control of the muscles of the trunk and arms and who have no hip pain.
    Innovations are those useful things that, by dint of chance, manage to survive the stupidity and destructive tendencies inherent in human nature.
