Yup. BTDT. Those things always end up being needed right after you get rid of what you have. Lol.I really think it's going to be fine but better safe than sorry. I typically wear some Tig welding gloves anytime I drill, cut or grind anything but my current pair blew out a finger just before this incident and I threw them in the trash vowing to pick up a new set on my way home the next day. They likely would have saved me completely and for just $7 at China Freight.
When I was a kid (19), I was angry and decided to punch a glass light fixture / dome. It shattered (duh), and I ended up having hand surgery to reattach a tendon in my pinky finger. I was really lucky it only cut 2/3 through, or it would have really sucked. To this day, I can’t understand what the hell possessed me to do something so stupid. It was pretty cool to watch the surgeon stitch the tendon together though! I got to watch, while he had a giant magnifying glass over it. Had to cut it more to have room to stitch the tendon up. Looks exactly like fishing line, but flat rather than round. [emoji16]
