About the author

Danny is a hemiplegic from Belgium, who loves tinkering. However, his disability limits the ability of his left hand. For Danny it is impossible to maintain a nail or screw upright in order to use it. In order to help him, his brother Geert Wasteels, made Danny a magnetic rod to easily maintain the nail or screw press.
