Default White Tail Deer

8"x10"x3/4" Basswood. BLO, Poly U, and Watco Dark Wax. Got OK for my Shoulder yesterday. It's not torn just strained, Excersize and should be fine. Now back to making 4 Sticks. That should get me some excersize for starters. Put the Burner away for awhile, probably need them some for the Sticks. Your comments are always welcome. Merle

Eventually Merle.........my doc says it's not uncommon for an active guy like myself to put this kind of surgery off for as long as possible, but he tells me, my shoulder will only get worse over time. As I understand it, the healing time is long and sometimes difficult.
I'm not exactly the arm-in-the-sling-for-a-month type, if you know what I mean. I will eventually have to bite the bullet though....
