Thread: A Fool and his Money

Although there's the temptation to make jokes about the fact that I become more symptomatic holding larger objects rather than small ones... ... I know that on the Pirate board, this can only somehow backfire on me in an unanticipated way.

Isn't carpal a long term injury? ie.it takes long term abuse to cause the problem? You've only been using your fab tools for couple years and not full time at that. I cut the ulnar nerve in my left wrist a few months ago. Is a major pain in the ass. I'll probably have to get a major rework of the hand as it doesn't seem to be growing back much.

Jon, when are you hoping to drive this thing? Id love to come out with you for your shake down run. I can show ya a few good trails to test her out on without getting stuck in a canyon making the rig non recoverable should something fail. Also are you working on it this weekend? If I get bored enough [sitting on the couch with no wisdom teeth] Id like to roll over and check it out. You got my number.. Not that I can speak haha.....

Thanks Nolan Pirates been too soft for too long.... Doc, make at least 4 passes over those welds. Shouldnt take too long to go over all of them. Chris

that sucks! I had what was originally diagnosed as carpal, but luckily turned out to be tendonitis. A lot of physical therapy, and significant changes to my desk, chair fortunately fixed it for me. Are they doing the silicon sheath thing as the fix? Sounds painful. Best of luck Doc! -Dustin

Yep I got carpal tunnel both hands . Blue collar worker with no insurance(well i keep it on my kids) and no money for pricey doctors. So therefore I deal with it. The 40 on the other hand is getting longs and a toybox for x-mas. You see where my priorities are.
