Zenki door panel cup repro feeler
Posted: Thu May 25, 2017 12:20 pm
I've got a prosthetist friend who showed interest when I told him about my failed attempts at making replacement door cups for the molded, single piece zenki door panels. The ones I had were UV degraded beyond reasonable repair, and I'm assuming that's a common issue. I was never able to find replacement cups easily except for a maroon set for nearly $100.
If that hasn't changed, is there any interest in a small batch of reproductions? My friend has access to materials needed for a small run in his lab. His idea was to make them using Kydex, but I believe carbon fiber and/or fiberglass is possible too. In any case, I'll be providing him my door cups to develop some molds and make a trial pair. Should have a better idea of price by then too, but it will be cheaper than the OEM set.
