Surgery on Monday

Microgunner · February 25, 2014

Are they cutting out or adding on. <dontknow>

A bud of mine had some added. He claims it works fine but the big black stripe around the center scares th hell outta the bar flies , even the drunk ones.

Well I'm back home now had some sleep and now it feels like somebody kicked me as hard as they could in the gut and my shoulders are feeling sore from the gas they used to blow me up. Have three new holes in me now and lots of pain meds. Thanks for the prayers and well wishes guy's it means a lot.

Sisco, I liked that but laughing is kinda painful right now <laughs> :eek:

Glad you came through OK man. Even endoscopic surgery is no fun.

EasyEJL · February 26, 2014

glad to hear you're doing well

NoFail · March 10, 2014

Brother Seasprite, I have not been around here at all for a long time. I'm glad this turned out well after you did the right thing and got it done in time, good job, brother.

You are lucky, my one I guess kinda major surgery was done up my ass, yes my ass hole.

I had a bad roids issue going on up in there. Something I let go until it became severe, bleeding and horrid pain. After the surgery I experienced the worst week of my life. Excruciating pain levels, I would have to give the pain a 10 on scale of 1-10. It was my fault because I put it off so long. I think the only thing that would have eased the pain is if I had pure uncut cocain to pump up there. Nothing they prescribed worked enough for the pain. I will never forget that pain. So I'm glad you jumped on it soon enough. Take care.

Edit: oh I forgot about my avatar. As you should suspect, no that is not my ass in question. I wish I had one like that, to touch and hold and admire and what not, but those just don't seem to be in stock lately and I probably can't afford one anyhow, oh well...

No Fail, my wife worked for a surgeon for several years and we were good friends. I asked him once about getting my hemorrhoids taken care of and he said "I can do that, but you'll hate me for about 6 weeks!" Since mine aren't that bad I decided to pass on the surgery! :ugone2far: <lmao>

Hey brother long time no hear glad to see your still around. I know when I left the hospital it felt like somebody had punched me in gut 1000 times. As far as pain level I would of gave it an 8. I'm doing pretty good now and I go back to the doc today for a follow up today. One thing about all this time off I've been able to spend time at the reloading bench prepping brass and going to the range when everybody else is at work. Hope you get a chance to get around more NoFail. Everything going good on your side of things?

Hi again, Brother Seasprite. Ya know what, I have not fired a shot in about 8 or 9 months. I have not loaded a cartridge in all that time. We had moved from the Fremont, Ca. home we rented because it was sold. Nowhere to go and I was laid off, we moved too Turlock, Ca. last late June. The rent is low here and it is a little closer to where my wife works. We were in the boonies here at first but that really sucked for May reasons so we just moved again a month ago. We are now in a great neighborhood right close to my daughters HS. We are very fond of our new location but I'm still not working and it sucks. I am having a hard time matching my experience to what the industry is over here, mainly feeding the world, as Turlock is in central California where food grows lusciously. I just got an excellent lead for a job doing the same thing as my previous job, involving industrial robots and custom automation solutions. Thing is it is back in Fremont which is 1 hour 45 min away. But if I win this job I will have to take it, I want too.

Anyway I have N.I.B. Rcbs rock chucker single stage press kit and a brand new Thumbler's Tumbler for wet brass tumbling. Essentially I have everything I need and lots of components. The equipment I used before was not mine and it went back to its owner, my wife's brother. I thought it would be a great place to shoot here but not really any good close by range. Plenty of land but I have no friends with access. So all my babies remain in the safe. I have a great spot set up to mount the new press and all that but just have not been thinking about it. When I start posting in the reloading forum that should mean I'm playing again.

Anyway this has gotten long but that's all it in a nutshell. See ya!

Glad to hear from you brother NoFail,I am also in between projects.Work looks like it's picking up all over.Will say a prayer that you get picked up soon.

sketch · March 11, 2014

Sheesh nofail I dono what I would do if I couldn't shoot!! Hope you get that job bro!!

Someone say "Industrial Robots" ?

....LMK if you find one in good functioning condition that's on sale for cheap. I'd love to run the shop lights out and use the robot to load the machines.

NoFail · March 11, 2014

Sketch, yeah, well I checked out for awhile. Depression set in a little. Probably best that the firearms were out of site and mind in the safe, it didn't get that bad but still....

NoFail · March 11, 2014

Shibiwan I said industrial robots.. It's what I do, did, looking to do again. What were you talking about? It didn't make sense to me.

unforgiven · March 11, 2014

Hang in there brother.

NoFail · March 11, 2014

Yup

Shibiwan I said industrial robots.. It's what I do, did, looking to do again. What were you talking about? It didn't make sense to me.

Haha... I guess I wasn't that clear. I'd like to eventually automate my CNC shop with material handling robots (e.g. ABB, Fanuc, Motoman robots) to load the materials into CNC machine so I can run "lights out" (i.e. the machines run unattended)

like this, but on a smaller scale, with old used robots. :D

Well what do you know!!! That, THAT RIGHT THERE, is exactly the same setup which was my last project in a automated installation. I installed about 40 of them. We used KUKA 180 six axes robots set onto 3 meter X axis units like how those in the video are riding. They were not elevated like that but otherwise exactly the same setup. That is money right there. Wow I could assemble a small team, me, Laurant the programmer and one of my electrical guys I know, and do an professional job. I mean I could but, well you know.... Good luck with that it would be very much fun to do if you ever get there for real. Automation is now, not the future.

seasprite · March 13, 2014

Went for my follow up on Monday and the doc told to get butt back to work <thumbsup>

In two weeks :banana:

Hang in there No Fail, were all pulling for you <thumbsup>. Glad you got your own setup for reloading now we'll have to start trading info again when you get settled.
