Places not to stick your finger.

[Sandbagger]

This could be a fun thread.

I just stuck my finger between the table and a 40grit high speed sanding disk.

Where have you stuck yours that you shouldn't have?

 

[Ded Driver]

OUCH :awful: ... if something is small enough to have your hands that close maybe you should use locking pliers/clamps or similar?
are you "once bitten, twice shy"?

You do know you can get finger nail cutters that do a better job without the blood.

Cheers HH

Ah I know that feeling and it starts to hurt about 20 seconds after you notice it. Put my index finger nail between a carbide key cutting wheel and the vice holding the key blank, end result was one less finger to clean :lol: and I had to learn how to pick my nose with my middle finger wasn't easy. My index finger took about 6 weeks to heal but the pain for the first few weeks was amplified when I'd keep knocking it . Good luck with the healing Baz keep us informed of the many knocks your about to endure :lol: :beer:

Still got all my fingers, dont know how some times,, thinking about giving up manual work and becoming a hand model layful:

Bloody hell Tuna ! Actually it looks a bit like a " finger lime " no pun intended layful:

 

[BigWave]

Don't worry about madtuna - I reckon he's un-killable!
Don't reckon God doesn't wants him, and the Devil's likely afraid that Steve'll take over, so I reckon the world's stuck with this dude :argh:

 

[madtuna]

nah...I heard chicks dig scars, but nobody told me how many they dig. So I'm just adding one a month until I score a babe then I'll stop :Y:

 

[BigWave]

You must be closing in fast though?
I know that the mines guys like you, but their medics probably don't - and probably the RFDS as well?
At least you're on a first name basis :Y:

Circular saw about two years ago. I posted the picture here at the time. Only 2 stitches. Anesthetic hurt more than the cut. Was working on the old caravan. About to start that project up again actually.

Put left hand thru a planer table while creating a drop on rebate back in 1978, three fingers, thumb and palm. Hardly see the scars on the thumb and Palm anymore but still visible from nail to middle knuckle on the three fingers.
No lasting damage just a few numb spots.

 

[Greenhornet_au]

Holy shift you guys are dangerous to be around, Im wearing cast iron gauntlets from now on !

Now where is that nail gun kids ? come on pass it here...

 

[MegsyB007]

They're not so bad Green Hornet. Just stay away from lathes, sanders, planers, Vipers - and plucking willnots... :lol:

Cheers,

I'm not very squeamish with these things, patched up a few of these type of incidents too, done a few minor things to myself.

My best was punching a screwdriver thru the palm of my hand, blood awesome comments from RAAF base doctor, luckily no tendon or ligament damage.

Wishfull sounds you and I have had a similar experience. I had a circular saw kick back and run up my hand between the thumb and index finger. 7 stiches later and it is all fine. I definitely have to agree with you that the anesthetic hurt more than the cut.

My brother was removing a termite riddled floor for his neighbour, wearing the appropriate footwear, not, he had thongs on. 9" Circ saw kicked back, result 4 toes off, only little piggy remained. All stitched back but has since lost second toe. Can't wear thongs now.
