Thanks for all the warm welcomes!
Henning,
Don't let having a disability put you off, there are a lot of lads on here that are a lot worse than yourself, and they have carved themselves a niche to fit into, turning out superb work in their own rights.
It is just a matter of adapting your machinery so that you can operate it safely and most probably a little more slowly, but once you have cracked it, there are no limits to what you can achieve.

Beeing (relatively
) young i grow back nicely, so i will probably gain almost full use of my hand again. Index finger will probably give me some troubles, but all my fingers are there so i am very (VERY) lucky. So no big deal in the end.
Finished my tailstock camlock mod yesterday, a little fine tuning and it's on to the various adjustments necessary after i've had everything in pieces!
Here's a couple of pic's of my tailstok camlock:
Lathe is a Sieg C3 whcih came with DRO standard. Paintjob is "courtesy" of Norwegian importer. I recently sold a C2 from same importer but older model and that had angular roller bearings, so today i will investigate what's inside here and if i need to change bearings in the headstock.
Thanks again for the welcome!
