    guessing that my firewood processing is done for a while..... Shattered my clavicle. Not too sore yet... Have to consult with a specialist to see what's next. Not a great way to start a new year. :doh:

    You know how we tell guys how much they suck when they get a good firewood score? You know, it's a gooder thing?
    Clavicle breakage is like the opposite of that.
    Man, where were YOU going?:eek::)

    I only know one person who broke a clavicle and it was 6 week before he was doing stuff again. First two weeks he was worried about bed sores and hated being one handed.
    Hope you heal fast and no pins and rods.

    Oh man, that sucks. Speedy recovery to you.

    As it turns out, I have spare spare NOS titanium clavicle you can borrow if you like, but you have to install if yourself.. (or pay some surely overpriced surgeon, [am I right?])

    I fell down a flight of stairs in a burning building while rescuing orphans and puppies.

    Or....

    My snowmobile got mad at me and pitched me off like a bucking bronco...

    I have some titanium at work.... I could get the design department to draw one up and then waterjet it out.... then just have to find someone to install it...
    Think 3m panel bonding adhesive would work ?

    Well, you taught that snowmobile a thing or two (namely how to get a long winter's sleep).

    Best of luck for a quick and complete healing!
