I was right on schedule. A week ago, I started applying the finished surface material, the fun part. Long story short, I received a tiny puncture wound at the base of my thumb at some point. That night I noticed a tender spot on my thumb. The next day it was very pink and ached down to my Wrist. The Puncture had sealed in an infection. I will have my third surgical cleaning today. I am told I will not be able to use my hand for a total of 3 weeks.

In order to get the piece finished in time for the opening, my son offered to fly in next weekend and be my hands.
