Looking good so far GB. Do you wear a wrist brace like the grocery checkers?

I have tried Dan but the damn thing get in the way so much I just suffer thru....but I do wear it when not using the scroll saw...it sure gets washed a lot!

I had surgery for CT on my other hand several years ago and this was anticipated due to my many years as a printer using that hand to unload the chute on the press. I will likely get this one done after the Holidays...

What's one more scar more or less?

It just gets maddening when I am on a roll and then I start losing the feeling in my fingers!!!

Looking good GB, did you reverse it on purpose or is this the back side?

I know what you are talking about with the hand cramps, they always come just as you are doing something delicate!

Keep a whittling away on those kitties they'll be really nice.

Gabby...that IS the back side....I have to get it done! It's a Christmas present for my daughter and son-in-law.

I don't know where she got it but she loves Africa and they have been over there twice in 3 years on safari's.
And yes I know that Tigers are not indigenous to Africa.

Tigers might not be indigenous to Africa, but their is a guy who has set up an tiger resort in South-Africa and they where doing quiet well. So maybe some day these super cats will dwell there too.  ;)

It looks great GB.
