Yep. Well, not a kit on it's own, bushes come with the main rebuild set.

Not every bush is there though. I'll get those too.

Hoobz i can feel your enthusiasm from here, watching with great interest and hope as many ducks line up as often as possible. As a retired exchippy i can understand time and financial constraints you are under.

Yayy a fellow house constructor.

I'm doing a progress claim invoice right now. Well, actually I'm putting it off while I reply here I keep getting distracted tonight. hahaha

This is part of one I'm knocking up at the moment. Love me temp stairs for two storey jobs. All the other tradies like them also, beats ladders for carrying everything up



Well, the pic has nothing to do with the thread project, but I gots nothing to add for a while

Nope no slabs for me

The other tradies love it. I just put on another tradie and his 3rd year last week. They're stoked


But expanding that little bit has put a pause on buying any parts for a few weeks because now I gots some extra out of pocket work costs coming before my next invoice gets paid

Hoping I be rewarded more long term. Then I can buy more crap.

Angry Can't win at the moment

It's been a long time since I updated.

I wish I had interesting pics and info to share.

Alas, an elbow injury from years back has come to haunt me, with a vengeance. I've been aggravating the issues for a while, and it's had enough it seems.
I stupidly thought it'd heal up on it's own if I was nice to it.

Just when all the ducks were lining up too

X-Ray and Ultra sounds show (in brief):
  1. At least two intraarticular loose bodies measuring 10x11mm and 8x11mm in the joint area.
  2. Moderate tendinopatic change involving the common flexor and extensor origins as well as biceps and triceps insertions.

Doc says it's amazing I can even work with it at all.
Wellll, most blokes I know just deal with it, adapt and think stuff like this goes away.

It's getting worse in my case.

So, in short, not spending dough on toys at the moment.
Just going to see where this elbow goes.

Seeing another specialist soon. Surgery imminent. Can't carpentry well with my right arm out.

Need to preserve funds, for sure, but really also need to preserve the elbow itself, so dropping down to least amout of movement until it's fixed. No lifting parts, assemblies, definitely no fabricating and crazy arm positioning and working on cars.

It's annoying sitting on the couch, getting heaps of energy and excitement build up over various projects...and then...remember I can't do anything at all with this.

Even using the mouse to put this post up is giving grief.
Damn
