yup, mine. Great running, clean truck, just need to free up some dough for renos before the torrential rains hit. I'm sure i'll kick myself in a few years.
I’m in the Trail hospital waiting for stitches… otherwise I could possibly check them out.
Unfortunately the doctor is wanting to see if it’ll heal up on its own without stitches. After pressure for three hours and being exposed to air for an hour, it has almost stopped bleeding. Hopefully it’ll be stitched up soon… I have a plane home to catch in 23 hours. And a 4.5 hour drive to the airport.

Three stitches and a total of 5 hours the released me with antibiotics and a tetanus shot.
Any guesses how it happened?
I'll give you a hint... I used a Rigid power snake to fix the drains, I built a staircase using only a skill saw & impact drill, I unplugged a heat table lamp, walked past a parapet wall with flashing around the top and I walked past a wood framed magnetic white board.... so many potentially dangerous things that could make a hole in my hand to choose from.

3/4" cut from the thin sheet metal of the magnetic white board. I bumped the corner of it, and the frame split apart and the metal fell and hit my hand on the way down. Blood was gushing out and got everywhere. I was told it looked like a murder scene with blood all over the place.
There was 1/10 the blood when I had 3 of my fingers pass under a radial arm saw's spinning blade.

My dad, a classically trained guitarist didn't leave the house for 10 years after he took off his index finger and thump with a radial arm saw. They sewed the thumb back on but it took me a year to touch a chop saw and table saw again. 25 years later he still doesn't like when I high 4.5 half him. PTSD must be prescribed with a light to medium dose of 'HARDEN THE **** UP"
Now I trim my nose hairs when I sleep walk, left handed with my skill saw. Pun intended.
My ex installed trigger locks on my chain saws even though my gun safe only has 50:1 ammunition.
Full disclosure, I m drunk.
