... and SOME FREE STUFF, TOO!

 

Donate Ergo Equipment that you want to promote, or no longer need! E-mail me.

 

This is a non-judgemental lending library... we don't recommend or believe in or endorse or otherwise like or dislike these products. They are being offered just as your corner library offers books on any subject without review. The purpose is to encourage nearly free testing of products to let RSI sufferers make the judgment. Use these products at your own risk. Be carelful. If it hurts, discontinue use. Follow your doctor's advice.

How It Works

This library is provided as a friendly service to the RSI community and to help promote our book. The purpose of this library is to share ergo equipment, but we're not interested in giving away expensive stuff, either so please only borrow if you intend to return it. Some items, though, are actually free to keep.

  1. (We've eliminated our previous requirement to subscribe to Sorehand.)

  2. You agree to pay for postage inbound and outbound, but generally we will pay for the postage to you unless circumstances prohibit doing so.

  3. You agree to forward the item to the next borrower if necessary.

  4. Check to see if the item is "on-hand," below.

  5. Send me an e-mail with your

    • Name

    • Address

    • Phone Number

    • E-mail address

    • The item you want to borrow

    • In the subject line, please put the item and a distinctive indication of your locale (example: Armaid, New Mexico)

  6. We will contact you to confirm the information and discuss the shipping costs if any.

Privacy Policy

We do not perform ANY direct marketing to individuals. So, your identity and contact information will be 100% confidential. It will not be willingly forwarded, sold, given, or provided in any fashion to anyone.

18" Soft Gel Wrist Rest

Given to a sufferer in California. Other pads that say "gel" are hard like Jello gelatin, not soft like a waterbed like this one.

One site that lists it Might be discontinued... if it is, could be quite a loss to the ergo world. I see the smaller one that includes a mouse pad, but this one is on very few web sites. Search for "gl-1 gel" in Yahoo or others.

Pain Free, by Pete Egoscue

Given to sufferer in Poland.
