    I used door handles until I bought a large Mastro Livi loom strop from SRD. I don't have a collarbone in my left shoulder from a motorcycle accident yrs ago so when I tried to pull it taut, I seemed to slack up at times. I'm right handed. The loom strop worked out very well for me. I like the 25" working area on it!

    I used all sorts until i worked out the height i liked, now i have a nice strong eye plate (i think it's called) fixed to the bathroom wall - hidden behind the towels when not in use.
    Bread and water can so easily become tea and toast

    Great idea! I bet that works well & besides that it stays hidden.
