Thanks MR P

theres some on the lower front and the “bridge “ .062 aluminum.. I sheared up 2” strips

I had the same surgery on October 27. My arm is doing much better but certainly not well enough to build your layout and platform. Good movement and motion but still quite weak.

What is your secret for your incredibly quick recovery?

Stay well and enjoy your Grandson this Christmas.

John .. I think it’s how my injurie was ..the tendon was “worn” in the middle from bone/calcium build up that he removed..it was still connected on both ends so technically I still had the same strength as before .. I’m writing this as I wait to go in to PT.. that said I have a very high pain tolerance and it still hurts some.. I was told it’s the worst surgery to have but it’s been ok for me.. Thank you I enjoy him as often as I can .. Merry Christmas 🎁🎄!

That's a really nice looking Phase III 420 in your profile pic, Snkbittin.  Did you do the restoration?  I bet that you haven't been using it very much as you recover

This. That's an awesome layout and the guardrail looks clean as can be!

A lot accomplished in a little time.

We've got a '47 B that my oldest and I are resurrecting right now after a 20+ year coma, a '49 a awaiting a flywheel transplant (i.e. decent weather and a bit of a break from work), and a '51 A that handles most of the work right now.  None is fixed up, but all are important to us.

Awesome.. I love me the Green! The tractors share the stable with a Factory 5 Cobra and a 2014 Shelby GT500 .. I’d love another B
