Prosthetic Arm Tip #2: Tying a Shoe

[Maginel73]

Here's a tip for you. When you tie the initial knot, go through 3 times instead of once. When you pull the laces tight. this triple knot will hold tightly, and you won't have to put a finger on it to tie the bows. Holds tight all day, ad can easily be untied one handed.

Why not slip-ons or straps? xD awesome job though; God bless!

[no3q]

I've never thougt that it can be a problem, but without arm i probably wouldnt make it :) gratz :)

[tyzahowlz]

Great video! Definitely worth 5 stars! Please check out my weird musical instrument quiz clip.

[appleslayer101]

is the arm attached to muscles or does it recieve any information from the nerves from the body?

[DavidAnth0ny]

I think it's a body powered hook, the kind that's strapped on with a harness.

[XXGUNNERSXX]

It is,watch other videos of him.

[THCPhD]

good for you bro keep keepin on! we all have to deal with ...whatever

[rhyboy1]

man thats cool. btw does that arm link to nerves or muscle or sumthing? looks pritty good.

[theguywiththehook]

That arm is purely mechanical, it is controlled by the cable and a shoulder harness.

[kd5txo]

That might take me a long time to learn...you made it look easy. I guess 'practice makes perfect" ... great video.

Thanks for the demonstration! My 10-month-old daughter was born with below-elbow amputation, and I was already wondering how to teach her to tie her shoes!

Easy? You make it look so very easy! I love the look of that black (?carbon-fibre?) shaft. It is a way-cool look! Keep on smiling!
