[il-talk] 50/50 cane

Tue Mar 15 23:17:39 UTC 2011

Do you mean a cruch tip on the top?
I never thought of that. 
If so that does sound pretty cool.

Okay. I used crutch tips and those are a bit bulky.

Yes with super glue which worked nicely until the next dropping of the cane,
really my best luck and length of survival of the top was coating it with
tape.

Yes, but have you ever tried to repair one?

I am laughing outloud because mine usually was gone in the first week also
until I tried the tape trick.

Edwin, thank you so much for that tip. Does anyone know how to repair or

replace the top once it has been broken? I have tried different things.

They're functional but not practical.

You are so right Connie about the tops breaking on the fifty fifty canes

vary easily.

I love mine and I have had good luck with wrapping a bit of tape on the top

and it has kept them from breaking when falling.

Tony, I have two and I like them. Just be careful about dropping it. The top

breaks easily. In my opinion, they are the only folding cane that comes

close to resembling a straight cane.

Thanks to all who responded on the cane question.  I have been folding my

multi-fold cane in half for many years now, I was pleased to find that NFB

has a 50/50 cane.  I ordered mine this morning and can't wait to get it. 

Yeah, I know it is pretty silly to get excited about a new cane, but what

the heck....
