out of service

I cracked three ribs last year. The pain isn't too bad, so long as you don't breathe.

this Jim and yes leson learned.

Sorry to hear Milt. Hope you have a speedy recovery! Old timers are having it tough this year! We were out rolling thermo a couple months back and my dad stuck his bare hand knuckles deep into a 12" die full of thermoplastic. He thought he was grabbing beads..... Had to have my brother run him to the ER while I stuck it out with my crew and finished the job. His hand has recovered pretty well since them.. He still "had" to stop by after he was done at the ER all looped out on morphine trying to tell me how to finish the job out..... Good ole old timers...

How are you holding up, Milt? Do you have someone as running your machines for you or are you completely shut down?

doing good Mike. Got out of rehab and went home 8weeks earlier than they predicted and with out the wheel chair. Loosing the back brace this week and have been driving the past week. As far as the biz we have completely shut down but considering starting up again in few weeks if I keep improving this fast. Thinking may get by hiring a temp to pour paint in the machines and help loading and unloading. Fingers crossed.

Released by doc with lifting restrictions so starting up again today. Have very small job to see how it goes. So excited to get of this couch and back to work.

Good Luck. I hope it goes well.

Went very well. Had a new employee started on the lazy liner today and he is a naturel. Started with water then with paint and lines were perfect. Did lay shingles for his starts. Cut them a little smaller for each line so at the end he only had a 3 inch cruch and he didn't miss a one. Was great for his first time running a machine.

YES!!! I'm so glad to hear that!

Thanks!!!!!!!!! man it feels good to look forward to something besides physical therapy.
