Hello Guys,

Currently, I'm working in an auto mechanical workshop. As a mechanic, I have to handle many tools. I am tired because of stretching my muscles multiple times for picking my tools and putting it down. Sometimes these tools fall on my legs and cause pain or injuries. This is causing a lag in my work, and I'm not feeling well. I did some online research for solutions and came to know about tool balancers (https://deltaregis.com/product-category/tool-supports/tool-balancer). Has any tried using this? Which type of tool balancer is best? Did it make any positive difference? Please feel free to share your experiences and opinions.

Thanks!

I work in a production facility where our assemblers have tool supports hanging on retractable lines etc. which basically makes them weightless and counteracts repetitive motion injuries. No idea what brand they are. The key is you pretty much have to be working in the exact same spot 90% of the time for them to truly be of use from my experience.

I think this is just spam trying to advertise a product.

No dear...Sometimes, I change the spot. Maybe due to the injuries that are making me tired of working anywhere. Which type are you using?

Of course not. I saw this one and I don't have experience using tool balancers before. I just want to know whether it is useful or which type is more convenient. And to know whether there are any other solutions to this problem or not.
