Just saw this at our (brand new) local Lowe's store on Sunday. They were $30 here! Looks like a great helper! :thumb:

I've had one for a couple years- great for a old phart with arthritis in
his hands. Spent 35 years pulling wrenches and working on Corvettes-
my hands are shot. Can still type better than my daughter tho. I modified
mine for gripping 3mm dibond.

Gino I thought the same thing to myself. Only problem with employees is they break easily at the first sound of a sneeze :)

i'm pretty sure i remember seeing the two guys who invented the Gorilla Grip, years ago, on the tv show American Inventors!

did it really take this long for it to show up in stores?

My dad didn't need this - he had the Popeye look - forearms bigger than his upper arms.
After a few drinks we needed to be out of reach - he liked to show us kids just how strong his grip was.
At 76 he does not drink anymore but still has a pretty good grip.

I added a .5 inch piece of rubber from an old floormat which conveniently
has semi-soft round 'bumps' for extra grip.
