Good news!  I got in to the doctors today due to a cancellation and found out about the knee.  I have severe tendonitis.  Nothing is tore or broken so that's good.  He gave me some anti-inflammatory pills and vicodin :o  and said to give it 6-8 weeks and see how its going.  I should be able to get back in the shop soon and get started on something.  Thanks for all the support and opinions, it is much appreciated :)
I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

If we can't help each other what is the point of being here?

Like maybe taking some of that wood  off your hands so you don't hurt yourself !
Funny part is I checked in here to say Whom ever has my name If you don't know what to do for me just send yellow wood !! That would thrill me !

good news on the knee, but two staves, that's a great gift, Bub

hope the knee heals fast, mine are both titanium so I feel your pain man

Looks like the makings of a Fine Blade Mr. Bailey...  :)

Got the fine sanding done on the Ole Sage Staff, out to six hundred grit.
Now building up the finish, five coats of CA Glue so far.

Next step is to sand the CA Glue down.
This is the delicate part. I'll sand with only 600 grit till smooth.
As long as I can get it smooth without sanding through to wood, the next step will be Polishing.
If sanding goes awry, then its more coats of CA Glue and another try at finish sanding.  :)

Three pics of final touches before CA Glue coats.
Three pics after application of CA Glue coats.

Thank You.
