There aren't any venders that specialize, you have to look around for it. Radio Shack has things that talk and they didn't ever realize it would help us as well.
Snap-On has torque wrenches that beep. I made my own probe tester by taking the light out and stuffing a piece of tin foil in the opening. Then in the ground wire I built a box, again from Radio Shack, where I took a kit box and a 3 to 18 volt buzzer they have in stock. That ran in series with the ground wire and then when I push the probe through the insulation a buzzer goes off instead of the light going on. I lost more of those things in the dealerships because guys that worked under the dashboard liked them since they couldn't see the light either. One web sight you might want to look at is http://captek.net They are a bit pricey but when it's a limited and specialized market they can have their way with pricing. ----- Original Message ----- From: Tim Sears To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, November 07, 2007 1:31 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] adaptive tools for auto mechanics Hey, I am looking for some information regarding accessble equipment for blind students entering our automotive program here at Metropolitan Community College in Kansas City. Are they resources or vendors that specialize in this. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
