4th Cabinet underway....
« on: November 16, 2004, 09:03:24 am »
Hi Chaps,

Currently documenting the build of my 4th cabinet on my web page. My web page also showcases the last 3 cabs I have made.

I am based in the UK and am trying to put together a website that will help UK based people build their own cabinet and enjoy the fruits of our great hobby.

Would appreciate your support in visiting my site and forum, and please join up and add to this new community.

Thanks.

Broke my wrist 10 weeks ago playing soccer - mentioned it on another thread.

Thankfully the cast came off today and I don't need an operation. I don't reccommend anyone breaking their schapoid bone - look it up, you'll be amzed

Yeah, I know all about the scaphoid...... Open hand fall?

10 weeks in plaster does horrible things to your body. Get the wrist moving NOW!! The sooner you get it moving the quicker you will recover and reduce the chance of loosing movement permanently.

10 weeks is still a pretty short amount of time for bones to heal, but give it 6 months and you will hardly know you broke it.

Ummm, yeah I was on that bike when it happened but I don't like to refer to it as a motorbike accident...... It's not like I dropped at high speed grinding the pegs and knee pads on the twisty's or hooning on the back wheel at 200km/h across the Harbor Bridge.

It was a simple but stupid case of being t-boned by a foolish woman who wasn't watching where she was going.

This was on the 17th of Feb this year while on my way to work. My bike came out much worse than me, at least they attempted to put me back together. :)

Ohh, by the way, the real purpose of your message, love the cocktails!
