"Stiff walk" could be applied to me, yeah, tho the result is outta-kilter stance in a different direction maybe, and somewhat ameliorated by recent injection of steel reinforcement...

Yeah. Works fine. The TSA guys are discrete when I set things off тАУ pull me aside gently, look me in the eye, and quietly say "Iron?".
Wanted stainless ('cause I have a fondness for stainless from back in my factory days) but the surgeon is hardass тАУ she does carbon steel exclusively. Outpatient surgery in the afternoon. Wheeled outta the hospital, stood up and walked to the car.
The ongoing (and shifting) aches/pains are easily explained away as age-induced (which, to be fair, tracks). My main opinion about the whole process is if you/your doc, etc think it's gonna be necessary eventually, get it sooner than later. Because I think younger patients rehab quicker (and maybe return to higher fitness level than olds).

You got the steel? Is it good to you? I expect to have the need soon enough.

Rust isn't a problem? Do you have to carry around an oil can like the Tin Man?
Well, apart from keeping me awake all night, it doesnтАЩt seem to be a problem so far.
That's a big drawback, though. Is it supposed to stop short of death?
No. Rust never sleeps.
I woulda thought that went without saying...
