so i was cutting the reclaimed lumber i have into round blanks. well i was trying to touch up a line and the blade slipped off the wood and guess what? it cuts pinky fingers really well. all the way through the bone only skin holding it on. so after notifying the woodshop teacher that a bandaid would NOT work for this one, i ended up on a strecther on the way to the hospital. it didnt hurt much, it only feals like i hit it with a hammer but the pain wont go away. the only thing that grossed me out was when they cleaned it before sowing it. the guy just flipped my finger tip back as if it was a zippo lighter. i cut right through the top on the finger nail on an angle. i wish i couldve gotten a picture before they sown it up. 9 stitches in all. i guess no lathe work for a while since its on my left hand, meaning it would be the closest to the spinning wood. bummer!
