Month: March 2022

The broken arm is healing very well according to the doctor and I should start using it much more.  Physical therapy starts soon to start getting complete movement of my right shoulder again.

Orders are a bit backed-up right now because a really big order came in last week and I have been focused on getting it completed, which should be done tomorrow night.  My arm gets very sore after about 20 minutes of soldering, which requires more frequent breaks to rest a bit.  For those with outstanding orders, expect to see shipments very soon now,

The specialist said a cast would be unnecessary and just use a sling for now.  He will re-evaluate in two weeks to see what the next step will be, but he said I’ll be in physical therapy for a few months to regain most of my arm’s functionality.

As long as an activity does not hurt, it is okay to do.  Typing is almost back to where it was but soldering is slow since the boards need to be laying flat on a table, not vertical in my usual work clamp.  My shoulder gets sore after about 20 minutes so I cannot do those four-hour build sessions for now.

Currently I am working on finishing up a couple orders and then will start building up inventory again; KIM Clones are slow to build even with two good arms so building a couple is next in the queue.

also expect typos here since i only have my left arm.

There are  a couple of built orders that my wife can help ship but it’ll be a bit before i can solder.

my arm is really painful right now but maybr  good night of sleep will help.  It is just in a sling, no cast.
