Thumbing It

Bob,

You might find this drawing of a 12.5" thumb useful, though it doesn't have dimensions on it.

I never followed up on the company's response, since I already spent my "toy" money on a core aerator, a spare attachment plate, and a towing adaptor. Will post pictures of my adaption in another thread (or resurrected thread) when I get a chance to break out my camera.

The guy who designed that one, Gaetan Lizotte, will build it at 12.5", but I'm not sure of the current price.

Following JJ's recommendation (he's purchased from Gaetan) I contacted him about possibly modifying his smallest thumb to fit. But, due to email problems and his vacation schedule, I ended up buying the thumb off eBay before Gaetan could get his design finalized and emailed to me. Last I heard, his thumb was about $250 US, plus shipping from Ontario.
