We have created a scrabble Board for blind people. We got this idea by the mobile phone game Wordfeud.
One of us has a friend who is blind, who couldn't play that game but though he was curious about how it is played. That's why we have created a game for blind people.

Very good job!

But I guess it would be easier to use square-chicken wire instead of the iron rods.

looking forward to more good ideas of you!
