I will be making a set of bilateral AK exo prostheses. I was wondering about the weight difference between traditional wood setups and durathane setups. Hosmer didn't have anyone immediately available who could answer how much the durathane setups weighed. The ease of shaping was mentioned. Does anyone have any opinions/experience with durathane vs wood? Comments?
Also, are there any companies out there that have the cosmetic split toe (to wear flip-flops) other than Seattle?
Any UV protection suggestions to stop Seattle feet from yellowing?
Thanks,
