good luck Roy.
Keep up with the physical therapy.
It isn't much fun..but in general they know what they're talking about.

X2 on the PT. When I was 16, my hunting buddy shot me through the thigh with a broad head off a compound. 1/4" from the femoral artery, I am lucky to be here. Some muscles were cut and just healed over detached, other muscles were atrophied after wound healed, took a lot of work to build it back. PT can be tedious, but worth the tedium.

Dang Roy, I suppose you'll be only consuming half as much beer now that you can only use one hand. You should start drinking something with twice the octane to make up the difference.

Way to go Roy! Keep up the great work!

Cleaned up a bow that came out of the oven last night. Got the limb profile started and got some minor tweaking. Tomorrow will add the tip overlays.

Got another toy today... a jet edge sander. I haven't used it yet. I need to shuffle some things around in the shop and find a place for it, but I'll be making dust with it in the next day or two.

That thing's heavy.

Justin,
That riser is sharp!
Not sure if you wet it down for the photo, but that maple has a beautiful amount of curl.
Nice job!    :thumbsup:

Took the sling and bandages off this morning and did the first set of exercises. Made the shoulder sore and tight but that's to be expected. Gonna take my first shower since Wednesday real soon this morning. I want my arm back..   :)
