    Default Disability walking stick feet

    my adult son needs a stick for balance. Its aluminium and the rubber feet (with flat metal washer) we seem to go through every 2-3 months. @ $4.50 each its OK but there must be better feet or a way to stop the stick biting through the rubber.

    Get hold of "crutch" feet they have a metal washer in them to prevent the pipe cutting through, I think Clark rubber have them otherwise you local Chemist.
