Interesting. I don't really see a huge market for it, the people most able to use it would be people who have no need for it.

Hope they don't try to patent that wheel design, it's been described in several books about Ezekiel's flying saucer. 'wheels within wheels'

HOW much fatter could we all get if we had one of these? Jeez...I hope they're working on something like that for paraplegics(sp) who actually NEED something like this!

Why couldn't they use this? It's all a matter of balance. Give'em some time.
I think it's great.

Keep it up,

Looks like a grand idea but I bet that it needs a clean floor. Scrap thread ends from a sewing room floor would sure tangle those little wheels. It would be a get tool table always right where you need it.

But can I use it to get up on deck in big seas to clear a fouled jib sheet?

Also, will it help me trim my jib going upwind?
