CatsPaw – A Better Mechanical Claw

Lighted Mechanic Fingers – Genius!

Mechanical fingers are the aircraft mechanic’s best friend.  We have all dropped a screw or bolt into a place that is unreachable.  It is frustrating when it happens.  I personally have wasted LOTS of time trying to retrieve lost hardware on aircraft.  Now that I have the Catspaw, I drop hardware into diffacult places just for the challenge!  Just kidding. But seriously  the Meyhew claw is better than the standard mechanic fingers because they are lighted.  The fingers are also a better design when compared to the older style fingers.   They are less than 17 bucks on amazon which is a steal.
