    oh the foot control is fine but leaning over a car standing up with one foot on the control is a pain or under a car welding over head i do not much of that any more but did .trying to hit the gas pedal gets old .but like them when sitting on a chair

    Yeah, I can see where they would be a lot more convenient. I tried a thumb control again the other day at a buddy's shop, unfortunately it seems old King Arthir has take over my right hand and I just can't seem to get the control I want on the heat so it looks like I'm stuck with the "gas pedal" control.....

    I avoid working under a car like the plague anymore, have a heck of a time doing anything when I have to get my arms above my head. That's another reason I keep modifying and trying to perfect my rotisserie, seems to be about the only way I can work on a car anymore!!!
