Healing from yet another surgery a few weeks ago, so no consoles ready at the moment. Hopefully they've fixed me this time, and I can get back to Jeeps and consoles.
I hope you heal well and feel more your normal self soon!
Thanks Flint. I didn't realize the page had shut down. Don't know what happened there, but it's back up.

I had my fusion surgery on Monday. I’m up and walking around. They’ve got me on some pretty good pain killers. Yes I’m still in the hospital. I’ve got some kind of infection again. Very low oxygen and blood pressure levels. A nasty cough (which really hurts my back) and a rattle in my chest when I breathe. It’s either pneumonia or a chest blood clot. So they’re sending me for a chest CT scan with dye to check for a clot. Y’all thanks for thinking of me and I’ll keep ya updated.
I am so sorry to hear about your medical issues. Main thing is to relax and heal. With back surgery people don't rehab enough and try to do too much too quick, hope you feel better soon.
Jim, hope ya feel better soon! However, If ya think yer gonna die again, leave the door open to the shop and send out the address, I'm sure a couple of us could finish 'em! Just kidding!... I know ya can't leave the door open!

Ha! I only have one left. Just waiting on someone to pick their color and tell me where to send it before I go under the knife again.
If you ordered from me and I haven’t taken care of you yet, I’m asking for your patience. I had the surgery on March 4th. The next week, I didn’t seem like I was healing as well as I did with the previous one. Called the doc and they said what I was feeling was normal. A few weeks went by and I still wasn’t seeming to get any better. The week before last, I was having extreme pain. So bad I was on the bathroom floor actually crying from it. Monday morning I finally decided to go to the ER. I needed some relief. They said I had an infection, gave me some antiobiotics and pain killers and sent me home. By Friday I thought I was going to die, so I walked into my primary care doc, who took one look at me and said either I drive myself to the ER or she was going to have an ambulance transport me. So I go to another ER thinking I’d be there for a few hours and they’d send me home. It’s now the following Wednesday night. I’m still in the hospital on all kinds of meds and still in pain. I was sepsis when I got here. They think they finally have the infection under control and now we have to work on my back again. Apparently the new MRI shows that my back is worse now than before the surgery. In 3 weeks (after they are 100% positive the infection is gone), I’m having disc fusion. They tell me this is worse than the other surgeries I’ve had, and I’ll be down for at least a month or more afterward. But it’s the last resort as far as fixing my back, so I’ve got no choice.
So I tell you all that to tell you this. I’m still doing the consoles (I have plenty of them sitting in my shop - just not redone and ready to go). I’m just asking for your patience and understanding while I work through all this health stuff. And of course if you want one, let me know and when my health lets me, I’ll work on them in the order that orders were placed.
Thanks ya’ll. Jim.
