Griots or rupes

I think ill eventually get a rupes one day....then ill havea triple threat for swirls!!

 

So I just found out I need shoulder surgery, ill be in a sling for about 4 weeks then out for rehab, my business is my source of income during summer while I'm done with school(also part owner of a wheel company but requires no work except filling orders) but after I'm done my sling I want to be able to start detailing again but won't be able to lift anything heavy for about another 2-3 weeks, will I still be able to use the rupes without a problem? Doors and fenders won't be a problem holding it there, just want to see how heavy it is? Plus I figured the crazy vibration from the griots won't be fun

 

rupes for the longer stroke...thats what makes it better
