Drum Practice Pad to a Portable Adjustable Table
How We Started
Since 1992, the KayJae™ Products have developed from one product into over a dozen different sizes or models.
The first product that was developed by Donald Jaeger, a drummer with a disabling spine injury, was the KayJae™ Backsaver Drum Practice Pad. It was invented to make it easier, more comfortable and less painful for him to practice his rudiments or to warm up before a performance.
From this invention, he developed the KayJae™ Portable Versa-Table and the KayJae™ Portable Storage Desk. The drum pad is replaced with an interchangeable table top or storage desk.
The patented design of these items is unique because the users’ upper-body weight supports and stabilizes the stand instead of having to apply inner thigh pressure to hold it. There is no strain by the user, making it easy for long term applications. The base of the stand is placed under the thighs and the arm of the stand is fully adjustable allowing the user to position the table, storage desk or drum pad in the precise location most comfortable. Additionally, the KayJae™ was designed for freestanding use on most surfaces.
The KayJae Portable Versa-Table is used most as an adjustable laptop or tablet desk, an ergonomic laptop desk, a laptop lap desk, a mobile laptop desk, and a portable laptop desk.
Inventor Donald Jaeger demonstrated the KayJae Backsaver Drum Practice Pad.
