Shopsmith Forums

Out of commission for a few weeks at least. Having my rotator cuff repaired on my right shoulder on Tuesday. A few projects I'm trying to complete that probably won't get done. My Doc gave me permission to turn pens if I'm up to it (and said I more than likely won't be!)

Get yourself fixed up and back as soon as possible. I get into my woodworking shop only in the winter months, so mine has been idle a few months already. In the summer I work on my yard and outdoor projects. In the winter, I try to wear out my Shopsmith.

I am guessing the banjo(the musical instrument one) is off limits also.

Happy 'convalescing'! Do what the Dr. says!!!! Do not do what he said not to!!!!!!!!!!

Gosh Chris! Hope the surgery and your recovery work out well.

Best wishes

My wife would say silence is golden! The banjos will all be lonely!

The deed is done! Can't feel or move my arm. That's a good thing as tomorrow the nerve block wears off! Then it's up to pharmaceuticals!

Speedy recovery!

Keeping you in prayer for a speedy recovery. Take care!

Chris-
I had the ball in my shoulder joint resurfaced and a titanium sheath put over it four years ago. Make sure you also follow the PT directions if you have to go through that as well. Get well soon.
