DavidR8's shop shenanigans

[DavidR8]

Get well soon David. Glad your didn't let Vevor get away with their sloppy advertising.

Thanks John.
I can see the ring gear all set up in my 4-jaw, ready for my return!

Oh I always figured you for an edge case alright...

I told my partner that all my vitals were normal and she said that better not be my epitaph.
I replied that I’m actually abnormal but still a nice guy

I can vouch for that. lol
Look after yourself and if I can lend a hand with anything don't hesitate to give me a call.

Thanks mate, I expect to return to active duty tomorrow sometime. Thursday at the latest. Really appreciate everyone’s support!

Don’t eat the food “ It‘s a trap! “

 

[DavidR8]

In a wild stroke of luck they released me!
So no risk of food related illness!

Small update on my health.
I’ve been admitted to hospital with multiple pulmonary embolisms.
Not the end of the world but not to be trifled with.
On a positive note, the vendor for the power feed unit refunded me $120 of the $168 total cost due to misrepresentation of the product and failure to communicate with me.

Wow that ain't no fun! Glad to hear your being taken care of and are on the mend. Sending you good vibes your way.

Thanks mate, it’s a risk I’ve run since 2004 when I first developed the blood clot in my leg.

Take care David...we need you here

I had a acquaintance with the same condition. He was a kale addict. Apparently there is a connection between certain foods and this condition.

Thanks Pete, seems you’re stuck with me!
Between my partner and excellent medical care I’m in good hands

Kale (and most leafy green veggies) are high in vitamin K which is the antidote to anticoagulants. I expect that your acquaintance probably raised his clotting factor too high.

If I have to have surgery they will give me a shot of vitamin K so that I don’t bleed out.

Take good care and best wishes for a full and speedy recovery. I'm sure they've got you on quite a regime at home. I had to do Fragmin injections (blood thinner) for 4 weeks after surgery recently. I coerced my wife into administering them. She's game but if she had any inclination to go into health care, she wouldn't have spent all these years in banking! My GP was able to give her some coaching and then we both did much better.

The pics were all X-axis feeds and I had asked about that. Their response was completely nonsense and said everything was fine.

What are the differences between what you got and what you thought you were getting?

Thanks Craig, between the docs and my partner I’m getting good care.
I’ve had heparin injections in the past and they were not fun. Tiny needles, big pain!
Thankfully I get to skip that torture this time.

The bracket that attaches to the table is what’s missing. I can easily make one so it’s not a big deal just annoying. Especially when the styrofoam packaging had a spot for it.

Heal up quick David! I hope you have a laptop with Fusion on it for you can design up some projects while you heal.

Cheers

Thanks Wayne, I do have my laptop with Fusion on it.
I’ve been putting in as much practice as my brain can handle

David_R8 - I've still got the BP style mount that came with my PF, if you can use it it's yours.

Gosh that'd be great. That would save me a bunch of layout and machining steps!
No great rush, let me know your schedule and we can sort out delivery.

@YotaBota Does it look like this?
