I'm cleared for work!!!!
« on: February 17, 2010, 10:04:58 AM »
Got it this morning.... I can now go back to work in my shop!!

Doctor says I'm progressing nicely and has given me full clearance to use my total arm strength.

No leg usage yet, but I can cut grind and weld to my heart's content, so long as I'm sitting down.  :D

Plus I got word my giant oven expansion is coming this weekend!!

Powdercoating for everyone!!!!

Yay!!!  ;D ;D ;D

Great!  I got some work for you. 

What do you need?

I just got word, my bottom up boring bar machine is a total loss.  :'( Bearings are shot, gear teeth are broken, shaft is bent.

So now I have to look for a new one. Crap.

That's what I was referring to.  The 836 we talked about.  Shoot.

Right on!  I'm sure it must feel freakin' fantastic to get back to it... You've come a long way and getting back to work prolly help speed that process along even more.  Just curious, you don't take the bus to work do you?  Cause I'd be afraid for the bus.

Congratulations. Be sure to wear proper breathing protection when welding and grinding.
