Hi group,

I haven't "spoken" to you in awhile, just been
readin'!
I need some help -- have developed tendonitis in my
elbow (medial, if anyone is interested) and been told
to rest it for at least 2 weeks. Not an option for
me, since my cat refuses to pay the (newly acquired)
mortgage payment. A friend here has loaned me her
slabroller (I do sculptures constructed from slabs)
which has been a big help. Unfortunately hers is a
Brent using shims and since I do multiple passes, it
hasn't been as much of a help as it could be if I had
a nice Bailey with the setting option.

So, to wind this up, I REALLY need a "shimless" used
slab roller. This being my slow time of year, I don't
have an extra thousand dollars+ for a new one. I live
in Gualala (paradise, if you haven't been here) CA.
I'm on the coast in the redwoods just south of
Mendocino, so pretty much anywhere in the Bay
Area/n.Cal. would be do-able in terms of picking it
up.
I know it's very hard to find good used slabrollers
... just thought I'd put this out there and see if
anyone on this list could help.

thanks so much,

Karen (whose back "went" years ago, have already had
the carpal tunnel surgery and am wondering what will
be next to go!!!)
