Cmon.. 3 stitches. I did this and came back and finished digging the last two post holes.

My dog needed 5 stitches and didn't even whimper. Man up

Yeh. But your meat and skin is there. Three stitches was all he could could grab of the meat that left. Lol.

Yours looks pretty painful though. I’ll gladly sit in my recliner and watch tv the rest of today. Tomorrow I’ll return, clean up the blood, build on the car, and fish the Tuesday nighter.

Wait till the Novacaine wears off. I can feel the throbbing already..

Man, that must have smarted some. When you said table saw, I cringed a bit. Hope it heals up soon.

It’s also times like these when a bidet comes in handy.

Yeh. Owner of the shops son admitted to cutting 2x4’s with a few nails in them yesterday. It was an 80 t Freud blade. It had a section of teeth missing this morning. I have used worse, but I shouldn’t have. I typically saw with less than a inch of space between my digits and the blade. I never experienced this kind of kickback from the blade. It was violent and fast. However, I respect the routers and router table more. Those things can fight back from time to time. I think I might invest in a stop/saw. It’s cheaper to repair the stop/saw if it touches your skin vs my $500 share of my copayment at the ER this morning.

Monday Monday

Rub some dirt on it and get back to work

As my dad would have said, "I've had worse cuts on my eyeball"

I did something similar 2 decades ago and cut the fingerprint pad off my index finger. I permanently lost some feeling on my index finger which makes typing on a computer a little harder.
I suggest wearing work out shorts with an elastic band to avoid the whole zipper & button issues.
Wear flip flops to avoid shoe laces.
Try to keep your arm elevated with your hand pointed up to keep the swelling down and avoid the throbbing sensation.

Join the crowd, bro. Hope it heals faster than mine has. Did this 3 weeks ago. Finally starting to heal.
