    Dear Steelybone, My splints were made by a physical therapist who
    specializes in hands and I was sent to her by a hand specialist.
    They are molded to your hand while the material is warm. when cooled
    it is rigid. The splints hold my thumbs in a neutral position and
    keepme from pulling them in against my hand. Pick up a magazine with
    one hand and you'll see the motion that they prevent. There are
    readymade products but they don't really do the trick. If you look at
    medical sites on the web, there is info about this and other hand
    problems. I have some arthritis too, but at 52, I hope to be able 
    to work with my hands for a long time to come. Good luck. Jan
