almost ground my pointer finger off with an angle grinder, but it was just a flesh wound...


the real killer was putting a hole in the same finger's nail with a screwdriver bit on my drill while trying to screw down an Ipac2 to my current project's CP

First trip to the OR was to get a fingertip reattached by a plastic surgeon.  Many more trips to come.

Nice.  I zinged an angle grinder with a metal cutting blade over my forearm.  It left a nice 2" long and 1/4" deep cut.  I was lucky enough the blade was hot enough to cauterize the wound.  Otherwise I would be doing the following:

Mr. Peabody:
Healing damaged fingernails depends on their proximity to the root. Crushed ones can be better ripped off and re-grown.

My grandpa was a carpenter and cut is left index finger off. Apparently that really bummed him out, because he could no longer play viola.

Most of the hand scars I have are from grade school era projects and fire and burning plastic, though I did try to take a finger off with a Ginsu opening a bacon package back then. No woodworking injuries of note.
