    Not a prob Pho2...It's not only to save nails it's mainly for handle slipage out of hand..

    And it's not a prob at all doing this it's the least I can do for this info packed forum. In fact I had some extra time today and mailed out over a dozen sets today. So the members that wanted a set, leave some feedback when you've installed them.

    I know; I was just joshin'. It HAS slipped outta my hand before; mostly in Seattle because it was always wet there.

    In Austin...not so much. Also, BTW, there are VERY few VXs around here. Lots of stares and questions! That hasn't happened in awhile...

    Hey got the strips today, can't tell you how much we all appreciate you doing this! Way Cool! I'll put them on this week. They'll work great, and prevent a broken door handle one day, I'm sure.....um...except for Circmand.... Maybe he'll show us all one day how to properly open the door handle.....

    I got mine today, too. Thanks VXFan, you're a real Mensch!
    I know you believe you understand what you think I said; but what you fail to realize is that what you heard is not what I meant.

    Me too tom4bren, I prolly never had this happen till i read this thread. now my door handle is slippin outta my hand alla time. This week en I'm gonna go to home depot and get some regular cabinet door handles and drill holes in my door handles and mount them. I'll post pics if I like it, gonna see if they have cabinet handles in kaiser silver.
    So I said to myself, I said "Handee"
    and this voice came back and said..
    "He's not in, may we take a message?"

    Think I'll go the simpler route ... cut up an old innertube & glue rubber to the underside of the handles.

    It's either that or eat a popcicle before I get to the VX.
