Doll Hip Replacement...

If you didn't believe me about my wife's Barbie collection, here's the evidence: a successful hip replacement operation, aluminium not surgical steel, filler putty, two-part epoxy, and a screw. Access to the abdominal parts was obtained with a razor saw (see removed section to rear) allowing complete removal of the legs and disassembly of the working parts, followed by repair and reassembly. The removed section fits back upon the steel shaft upon which her movement pivots. She now looks quite decent, even her arms move in unison with her legs which, being a dancer, was essential to her recovery. The patient has now left the hospital and is doing well, taking convalescence in a cardboard box while her new clothes are made. Well it makes a change from tinkering with the innards of locomotives.
