[#12055092]

Just saw this advertised for an upcoming Kickstarter product.
I like the idea as although I don't yet own one (gun)..the area it allows you to target is exactly where I'd want use one on . Just wondered ..thinking out of the box ..how could you make/bodge/mod something to do the same job? I'm normally good at thinking of solutions but haven't immediately come up with a solution ..Any ideas/suggestions would be much appreciated + recommendations for affordable theragun alternatives ?
Cheers
Bill

I’ve done something similar by using the square top cap on end of the bannister, standing back to it and using the corner to massage the sore point. Worked quite well.

Yes me too ..I've leaned against all sorts of pointy tings over the years. Even tried a hiking pole against a wall with the tip stabbing a area of intense spasm . Thought this looked good though.

It feels like a bike workstand could be used somehow?

A single g-clamp or speedclamp with a pad of neoprene or something for grip? Also, nothing wrong with plain old gaffer tape, this is nuts.

Yes I'd thought about a DIY gun with a worx axis unit ..then use zip ties,ratchet straps ,foam etc. Also pondered the bike workstand

I like the idea of using the Bike Workstand but they're not very heavy therefore you won't be able to apply much pressure without the Workstand tipping over.

How about a Theracane for those hard to reach bits. And save a fortune.
Are those vibrating massage guns really worth the cost? I’d hate to buy one and it ends up in a drawer.

Got a theracane it's OK ish . You can make your own theragun type device using a jigsaw or similar.
