Carefull out there, even when you're not cutting......

Thanks Gary and Nate. Hope you guys (and all the other good folks on here) have a great New Year.

Nate- Went back to work yesterday. I think I'm gonna cut this damn finger off, always in the way!!!

Reminds me of when I shot a nail through my knuckle. After I did the happy dance for a while, I tied it up with duct tape and went back to work. It wasn't 30 minutes later, I whacked it on a piece of osb during a hammer swing. I think at that point I may have peed a little. Hahahaha

Heal up good, and don't chew that finger off like some crazy Coyote! Hahaha

Happy New Year Sam!

I hope its a bit better by now.....
I remember smashing my finger a few years ago, after several hours I finally had to go to the hospital, it was too much pain
I was REALLY lucky, a doctor made an "off the record" maneuver and poked a hole in my nail with a hot needle.
I thought I saw black jesus that day, best relief I've ever felt.

Things rolling great, I'll keep you posted.

I'm sorry to hear about your finger, that has to smart real good. I guess it could have been worse, you could have been hit in the groin.

Oh man my history of freak an painful accidents started young!
When I was a wee little young toddler I had to stand on tippy toes to lay it across the rim of the bowl to pee.
And my mom decided to put one of those fuzzy covers on the lid that would only let the seat and lid stand up for a moment.
Well that little hard plastic bumper on the bottom of the seat gave me a similar injury.


Don't ever get any part of your body in the bite or crush area or pinch area!

Your friends gave you some good advice here. Tie your finger up above your head, wrap it in ice, and drink whiskey. Please provide pics of the procedure and watch out for the toilet seat.

Glad you are back to work. Had a 2100 kick back on me one time. Fortunately just caught the knuckle of my middle finger. It did get into the tendon ,took almost 3 months before I fully bend it. Looked funny running the saw with my middle finger sticking straight out.
