Metal frame for wheelchair fencing - drawings?

[PeterGustafsson]

Hi!


There are several schools for people with various handicaps in my county, and some of the club members have thought about serving them also.

That would necessitate the procurement of a dedicated fencing frame. I have found the rules for how such a frame should be designed, but they are quite short. There exists a producer in the UK, but the price is a bit on the high side. Considering that our club has among its members people who can weld, and have a sizeable workshop at home, I would like to hear if anyone has technical drawings, detailed photos, or any other useful information.


Have a nice time!

I know that Gene Gettler of the Atlanta Fencer's Club has such a frame, perhaps he has drawings as well. Here is the link to his web site...

Good luck with this.

Try contacting Jerry Benson in Oklahoma City. I don't have his address handy, but I'm sure someone here does.
