Ouch, Ray. Like they say, a lesson earned is a lesson learned. If true, I have earned a fortune.

the healing time will depend on how many times that I hit the sore spot , usual a week will be time enough to heal

Oooo I did that once about 40 years ago. Peeled a chunk of my left index finger right back. Its still got a little bit of deformity at the tip. Never did it again though. Without thinking, I just reached across the spinning 4 jaw chuck and bang.. Wow that hurt..
Epilog 24TT(somewhere between 35-45 watts), CorelX4, Photograv(the old one, it works!), HotStamping, Pantograph, Vulcanizer, PolymerPlatemaker, Sandblasting Cabinet, and a 30 year collection of Assorted 'Junque'
Every time you make a typo, the errorists win
I Have to think outside the box.. I don't fit in it anymore
Experience is a wonderful thing.
It enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again.
Every silver lining has a cloud around it
