Who is Right Handed and Who is Left Handed? I'm talking about the Sign Painters.

I'm Rignt Handed myself, but almost half the Sign Painters I know are Left Handed.

I always thought that was out of proportion to the general population.

I lost both my arms while training as a butcher in a meat grinder accident, so I learned to letter with my right foot. I paint with my left foot about as good as I dance with my left foot.

I paint signs as well with my left hand as I do with my right. Of course, Raymond Chapman will jump in to point out that I cannot hand letter at all (this has been a running joke between us for over two decades). All other sign related things I do with a dominant right hand.

Considering the fact that I've broken my right hand and wrist six times (it always happened while playing, never while working or saving a child from a speeding car), I have had to be left handed on a number of occasions.

Both, but I prefer my right.

Actually enjoy working with lefties on walls. You start at opposite ends and meet in the middle [Smile]

I'm right handed except when measuring boards....I set the tape on the left edge of the board....pull tape with right hand and mark with my left. I have to do this so the numbers on the tape are right side up!

Does anyone make a right handed tape measure??????
