Worst of all was the fact that I had to stop everything, just had to lie in bed with my leg in the air...I'm totally NOT used to that...the day gets alot longer...

Hopefully you were able to tie a computer monitor to the ceiling and do some CAD! Glad you're back at it, can't wait to see more progress. I really like the dowels for alignment.

Do they have day time "drama" series on TV there? We call them "soap operas" because they advertised soaps to the stay at home mothers back in the day.

Easy on the break dancing.

I know the feeling all too well. I’m about 3 days into 6 weeks. I can’t walk for 6 weeks. I’m not technically banned from doing anything else but I’m too sore now to do anything besides sit on the couch.

Can you use crutches?
 
   / Tractor backhoe - homemade #1,138  
Yes, but that’s about the equivalent of driving with 3 wheels. I have a desk chair for rolling around the house but there’s stairs to get outside and the shower is upstairs. I can go upstairs pretty decent on crutches but going down I have to sit down and slide down them. And I’m too sore to do much now. I’m hoping to be able to at least put a little time on my equipment in a week or so.

Boom no 1. assembly. Gotta love those dowels, always perfectly aligned parts and so easy to make..

It looks like you put a thin walled tube in the stick nose, then later put a thick walled bush in, to accept the pin and wear bushings ?

Tube in the nose is 110 x 8 mm. Yes, that's the way I'm gonna do it.
