That sounds like something you should post some pictures of.

I agree, but we were very clearly told not to take photos by the oil company we're building the road for.

Wow. Good luck
Yeah... It was a bad call to get on radio while I was working on the upper section. I don't think I've ever driven so quickly down that road. At least Mike is okay. That's the most important thing. But when we pulled the cover off the final, we did a double take. It wasn't operator error. This machine is just an old D8N with a ton of hours that was close to a rebuild anyway.
Found a used Firestone forestry tire... 50%+... about 2 blocks from the day job... won't mention how much I paid for it, would be rude... suffice to say I may have to go back and get the mate for just a little more.
Only issue is it full of calcium... so I have to figure out how to get it out of the crummy and on the skidder by hand... solo... should be fun.

Rig a gin pole to the missus and use the winch?

That's how a lawn tractor tire feels to normal sized people

That sounds good to me, of course with the missus in compliance.
Last summer I tore something in my left shoulder. likely a rotator cuff, and it has been bothering me since then. Last Friday the doc gave me two cortisone shots using ultrasound. He said it can take up to six weeks before the full effects of the shots are felt but man do I feel better already! I can lift my left arm all the way over my head and let it back down without needing help from my right arm. I'm not even whimpering turning off the shower valve.
BTW on Thursday I got vaccinated for Tdap, shingles, and pneumonia. I had to go to the grocery store for the vaccines since the doctors office doesn't give shots. Those three injections cost $700.00. Thankfully insurance covered them 100%.

i tore mine 4 years ago.........it hurt like hell and my arm went numb. i am a hard head and been living with it, it got better very slowly. good luck Bill.
That was the way it was when I got mine. I had such a small tear that you could only see the cyst from the leaking fluid. I got the shot, and it was the first good nights sleep I had in three months. The best thing was it allowed me to function through Physical Therapy. I'm actually in better shape now than before I had hurt it.
I'm almost eight weeks out now from rotator cuff and slapp repair. The take you to your knees pain is gone and my flexibility is probably over 90% returned. Surgery was easy compared to the P/T. P/T has been painful as I can't relax my arm like "normal" people can. Regular folks are able to relax their arms while in an overhead position and have them involuntarily fall. I thought the PTA was nuts when she told me this. She was fussing at me to relax because she was actually lifting my rear off the table as she pushed my arm back. Long story short, I started polling folks at work and other gatherings; I only found three who like me could not relax their arms - my three daughters. I told my findings to the PT and PTA. They have let up on the fussing.
I've been dreading starting a saw, but now I am doing weigh exercises that mimic this without any pain.
The worse exercise for me is pedaling the bike with your hands. It doesn't hurt but 1.1 miles in 10 minutes at 95 watts completely zaps me. I don't really know how they figure the mileage but it certainly feels like you gone a mile with your hands. When I first started this exercise I could barely hit 30 watts and then only in spurts.
I'm glad the shot worked for you guys. I got one in my left shoulder before my right shoulder repair. I couldn't tell it did anything other than lighten my wallet by $250.00.

The doc told me guys can expect 3 problems as we age. Bad knees (got those), bad shoulders (got one), and I forget the third thing. Something about memory, maybe.
Oh yeah and bad eyes. Mine are OK for now.

I've worn glasses since I was 9, so I have the bad eyes down. Of course, no I am using contact and OTC readers at the same time. My knees, while some days feel like they have 1/4- gravel in them, aren't too bad. Luckily I only played High School football, my cousin's that played in college can barely walk.
I use my resistance band regularly. Most of the PT I could have done at home, but the hand bike thing, hard to find that machine. That and the ultrasound, and electroshock therapy thing...
