Building Laser cut kits and dioramas

Steve. Top class work there I have followed what you do on other forums very inspirational
Don't know how you find time to do all this and to such high standards
Is it the long British winters or dose the family look after itself and pass your meals under the door

 

Wow very impresive Steve more please

Steve, Sorry to hear that you have had a similar injury to your spine as I have had my self.
I know and feel for your situation.
I required surgery to L5-S1 but due to the insurance co that was handeling it continually playing games with the floored system we have in Australia by the time of surgery 1-1/2 years had passed and the Neuro surgeon said the damage done over that time needed a fusion rather than the replacement mobile disc that was orignaly planed 1-1/2 years earlier.
6 months later doing a return to work program the Disc above L4/L5 failed whilst I was being told to do a certain exercise by the insurance co's physio service provider, that was later found to be inappropriate for my type of injury.
Leaving me in a similar situation to you unlikely to be able to return to working, as can become incapacitated at times and in constant pain.
One thing I'm great full for is this hobby as it has given me some thing to still enjoy when unable to do a lot of other things in life.
Other hobbies like my Race car have had to be given up until hopefuly I can gain enough feeling in my feet to be safe driving at the level required in a race car.

Steve I wish you all the best and make sure you look after the rest of you spine your still Young like me and we have to make it a fair few year yet to get all the modelling we want to do in.

The photo attached
This is my chair I use to do most of my modelling.
Figured it was the most comfortable and suportive, I couldn't use in the car so mounted to an office chair
Gives me a good amount of extra time before I can't do any more and have to give up for a while.
