Wheelchair Driveway Hoist - Tetra Society
Loading...
Uploaded by SSDFoundation on Apr 7, 2011
This driveway wheelchair hoist was built by Tetra Society of North America's volunteer engineers so a young man can access a steep driveway in his wheelchair. Previously he had to be transferred to a vehicle and driven up and down. Check out Tetra if you want to overcome a physical barrier in your life, or if you want to "donate" your engineering skills to individuals in your own community: www.tetrasociety.org.

It's not an everyday Tetra Society project - and, come to think of it, there probably isn't a typical project - but it gives this young man a little bit more freedom and dignity. (Something most of us take for granted.)
