Well it’s winter and there’s s a nice, warm shop in the basement, but absolutely of no use for the time being. I had a knee replacement surgery last Friday, so woodworking is out of the question for awhile. The surgeon said that after the pain meds they put in the surgery site wore off in a couple of days, it would feel like I’d been hit by a truck. He was right, but he didn’t say it would feel like the truck had been parked on the knee afterwards. I have an ice water therapy machine to help with the pain and swelling recovery, but the swelling is huge and enduring. I do have physical therapy three times a week also along with daily exercise routines.

Ouch, do recover quickly. I presume that if not replaced, the original would have given out sooner or later curtailing shop time as well!

If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

Thanks. I’ve been having cortesone shots in both knees every three months for a couple of years now. Both knee joints were bone on bone and were getting worse. So the right knee was replaced this year and I will have the left knee replaced next year. Also have the same issue with my left thumb joint, but the injections have a better result so far. There is a new surgical procedure for the thumb and I’ll give a few years to prove itself.Jim Frye
