Time to start another work Station

[Don Baer]

This one will go in the big shop and will primarily be for the #D printer(?s). Hopefully I can get it finished before the hand surgery on Thursday.

The Melamine top is already cut. It's left over from the shop Computer work station as is the bottom.
There will be a piece from this project which will go into the Laser work station which will be next on the list.

It bothers me to see you getting hand surgery for trigger finger. If you are taking cholesterol lowering drugs, this could be the reason for your finger problem. Stopping or changing to another might correct your finger problem. I was on Lipitor after my first heart bypass surgery, and after taking the Lipitor for almost two years I had several trigger fingers and was getting so crippled that I needed two canes to stand and walk. Just two days after I stopped taking Lipitor, I could stand and walk without the canes, and over the next month, my fingers started moving normally again. They have tried me on every cholesterol medicine since then, and similar symptoms began returning, so now I'm not on them at all, and living a better life without them.

Yes, my cholesterol is high, and every new doctor wants to put me back on one of them. When I make them go back in my records to read about my history of taking cholesterol medicines, they stop trying to put me on them again.

If you are taking cholesterol lowering drugs,

Charlie, I have been off of cholestrol drugs for over 2 years so that not the problem. The tendon on the middle finger is the problem. The hand surgen tried 2 cortezone shots and it offered some relief but it didn't last and he wont do anymore than 2 shots. He says it's sensless to keep using cortezone and if 2 shots don't fix the problem any more is just a waste of time. He says that the operation is a minor one with only a local and next to carpil tunnel is the most common surgery he does. Thanks for you concern.

I was able to make progress on the #D printer work station. I should be able to finish the shell before the surgery on Thursday.



I'll be getting rid of the rickety old table tomorrow. I ordered another 72 inch Huskey adjustable height work bench like the one the project is sitting on. According to Home Depot it will be in tomorrow so If it gets here I'll scrap the old table.
