Exclamation Omg...

Yeah, ok... So I almost took off the top of my finger sharpening a metal scraper that I was planning on using to shave down some branches.... I think it might be sharp enough now... If only I could sharpen my knives that well... I might need stitches.... Maybe not stitches, but probably steri-strips... ow...... it hurt so bad... Good thing I'm done spreading the silicone.

imho I dont think you should sharpen something use may use everyday that well lol, but in mot the person to talk to about safety . Have had 360 stitches 260 external and 100 internal, 2000 degree Mig wire into both kneecaps and both calves, Roman Candle shot into my forearm, a thumbnail cut my eye in half about 1/8 of an inch, the back of my head dented from falling onto a sidewalk curb, Arc burn so bad i went to the hospital and peeled of a layer of my face i swear i can reuse at halloween as a mask. I could go on but my memory isnt that good anymore lol *flex*

lmao... I'm clumsy, but I generally manage to not nearly kill myself, lol. I'm glad I was holding the whet stone like I was, it more of my finger had been sticking out, who knows what might have happened... It seems to be holding together though, so I think I'll be fine with a bandaid... I do need to make a cap for the scraper though... Wouldn't want to forget it's so sharp and hurt myself again... I really can't believe I did that though... other than surgery, I've never gotten cut that deep, and I have scarification art on the inside of my forearms.

When i get a burn i cry like a baby lol, couldnt handle scarification meh thinks. although i have 2 sleeves so i do suppose the pain is situational. You could always use those things that people that have taken up sewing called a thumb thimble i think, metal caps for your fingers or hay ... a butchers glove

They are actually cuttings, rather than the burns. I like the thinner scars you get that way. And to think I'm actually afraid of how much it will hurt to get a tattoo and that's why I haven't done it yet... lol
