inventor wanted

Hi there,

I have looked all over at the gardening tools for the disabled and not found what i need.

I have MS and love gardening but all the disabled friendly tools are still too heavy for me. I would like it if someone could design something similar to a lopper but light weight. Something so i can cut my plants down when winter comes. I dont have any majorly heavy or thick plants but i do still want to do the gardening myself. I have already got a gripper stick so i can pick up the plants but nothing to cut them down with. I have employed someone in the past to do it for me but now it is getting expensive.

Any ideas anyone?

 

Have you tried Freds Shed? It has several pairs of loppers on this page and one that the person giving the review says is lightweight.

Though if you've been searching I expect you have already seen it.

 

I have a pair of felco loppers that you can have free if you want, the handles are aluminium and they cut well, I never really liked them so theyve sat unnused for the last 5 years.

Ill post up a pic tomorow, if they look like they might be usefull then Pm me your adress and ill post them off to you.

 

Nice gesture Paul, I was going to say aluminium handles will be the lightest you can get worth a try Willow.

 

Good morning everyone

Thankyou all so much for your suggestions. I am going to take Pro guard up on his offer (thankyou Paul).I have also had a look at Freds Shed (hadnt heard of it) and iv put it in my favourites as i think its a very good site.
