Good Afternoon eveyone. For fun: A fella I'm working with brought in his "home-made leg" to show me. He used his existing locking liner, drilled a hole in the shaft of the new limb for the pin to slide into & duck taped this "component" to his residuum. Partial weight bearing capable but no ambulation! His buddies, of course, were rolling.  Surprisingly no alcohol was involved; this gentleman, deer hunter, is 65 y/o.
