farmshowRichard Guthrie’s mother has a penchant for movement in her wheelchair and damaged several walls in her home while bumping into them as she was watching TV.  Richard of Early, Texas solved the problem by turning his mother’s wheelchair into a rocking chair.

Richard simply made a set of curved metal tracks – held together by two adjustable rods – just wide enough for the wheelchair’s two wheels.

“My mother rolls onto the tracks, then locks the wheels and it becomes a rocking chair,” says Guthrie.  “It can be adjusted to fit any size wheelchair, is sturdy enough for any size person, and is simple enough for any do-it-yourself person to build.  I could provide plans if there’s enough interest.”

Be sure to contact Richard if you need schematics to build your own wheelchair rocker.
