I adapted the door-key pictured
below, to help one of my consumers with severe neuropathy in his hands, insert
and turn it in his door lock. I used an epoxy putty (available at
most hardware stores). The stuff comes in the consistency of molding
clay. I have seen different types, but the one I chose has a portion
of the putty that is white, and a portion of the putty that is black. By
thoroughly kneading together, two same size chunks -- one white and one black
-- you come up with one gray chunk. You can then mold this chunk around
the grip. I used a nail to make a hole through the key-ring hole.
WARNING: You have to work quickly because very soon after kneading
the stuff starts to harden -- within two minutes. In a couple of hours,
when the epoxy is totally hard, just sand the rough edges.
