Cheers Bart

The surgery's something I've been wanting/dreading for a while - half the time I feel like I've got a glove on my hand when I'm trying to do delicate work, which drives me nuts and I've known I've got to get it sorted. Now I no longer need to act as carer for my elderly Mum, I can.... Hopefully, the surgery will work, but they don't guarantee it.

On a more cheerful note, this handy little bundle arrived today:



Basically, it's a lazy way of getting precisely cut lengths of tube which should have a multitude of uses beyond just rigging.

I won't be doing any rigging for a few weeks, but it's something to look forward to.

All the best

Cheers again Bart

My surgery is early tomorrow morning, so I'll know this time tomorrow how much or little modelling I'll be able to do for the next couple of weeks... I think delicate work like rigging will be out of the question, but it would be a nice bonus if I can get on with some basic stuff.

All the best

Rowan
