Cut my finger off today!

Damn Jordan!!! sorry to hear that.

I feel bad enough that i cut the palm of my hand and lost feeling in my thumb...... but this! I know the feeling of p***ing out and thinking "****, she'll never be able to carry me to the car....." ;-)

 

Sorry Dude

I did it with a fly cutter in a Bridgeport mill

I also cut the back side of my hand up real bad - tens - the small finger tip - 200 + stich ezz.

Maybe you need to talk to another surgin - if you saw the mess they put back together on me...fna.

Dont feel like a puss for p***in out either -

My lights went out 3 times before I was at the Hospital.

The pain from the cut is nothin

The real pain starts as you start to heal.

This is for all other Hambers workin to late, workin to sleepy, workin while drinkin beers - FN stop it.

This **** happins & it happins so fast it can kill you.

 

OUCH!!! sorry to hear,but dont worry you got 9 more

 

Man, an accident like that would cut my typing speed in half!! Seriosly,I get dinged up alot at work,but nothing like this...your outlook is inspiring,dude.Hang in there.

 

Sorry to read this, Jordan. Good luck with the recovery.
Must have been finger day. I read that 35Chevy tried to make pretzels out of his fingers. Considering the number of HAMBers we could have an "injured and disabled" list that would be as busy as the main section is.

 

Even if they reattach it, you'll never pick your nose or m***age another **** with it.

Without safety, we are no different than dogs trying to cross a freeway...

 

Only the HAMB would think that's funny. That's funny!! I have a short thumb, it ****s.

 

holy ****

 

Been there. lost three finger tips and got a large hole in my chest. (yes I was playing with home made fireworks) but at least I never p***ed out. Oh ya chicks dig guys that are missing fingers

 

Oh ya, got to have a mullet though.

 

Wow that's bad. Sorry to hear that happened.

 

hahahahhahaha, dizzamn! he way more ******** than me. I digs ma' fingers.

You oughta have it made into a shifter knob

 

Whoa!! Does this ever bring back memories. I cut three toes off my left foot with a lawnmower at age 13. Doesn't take but a second (or less). A wonderful surgeon saved enough of my big toe so I don't walk with a limp but the recovery was a painful *****. I usually can get shoes in one size that will work but occ***ionally they will curl up on the left one and look like a pixie's shoe.
Good luck with the healing.
Just realized the 50th anniversary of that little event will be this summer. Maybe I'll have a hot rod gathering to celebrate.

Your whole finger?.... Or the one next to it?

 

Ya ever wonder if the machines say "gotcha this time". Good luck.

 

We do??? ****, I never got that memo

Sorry to hear the news bud, but I know you and it's not gonna stop you now is it?

Wishing you a speedy and painfree as possible recovery so you can get back in the garage.

 

Still no pics???

 

wow it friggin hurts right now, the numb shots and vicoden wore off an hour ago and im ready too roll around and cry................the throbbing is unreal....... i hate metal shears

 

Sorry to hear this, but I admire your at***ude!
My friend Raymond lost half his middle finger to a fan on a Taurus. Now he can tell someone "**** you a little", or "**** you a lot" depending on which finger he gives ya!

Take care of it, watch out for infections.

 

Thats because your using it now. Lay down and hold that arm up some. Keeping it higher than your heart eases the pain a little.

 

Years ago a buddy of mine cut off his pinky finger with a skillsaw...he took the finger and cast it into a shifter knob for his Indian motorcycle. Always liked the reactions from the dudes who were checkin' out his bike and saw the shifter! 2 guys were arguing with each other about whether it was a real finger or not...my buddy held up his hand and the discussion stopped!
An index finger would be tough to lose, you're going to have a change in the way you do things from now on...

 

a local mechanic was working on a newer car and the electric fan kicked on, it nabbed two fingers quicker than hell... now he has three and 2 half fingers on one hand... sorry to hear about it, it will be awkward for a while... but you will get use to it and it will be easy to overcome.

 

jeez man..... good luck with the surgery.

That's LOW

 

At least you don't have to go through "re-education". I've seen a few fingers fly. Think nylon filaments running at 700 feet per minute, a loop, a finger, and fwooop, there it goes.

Worse than the injury is that the person has to go through company 're-education" to "get your head right". LOL

I understand the hardest part to get down is getting your change when the cash register kicks it out.

 

sorry for your loss. it's going to be tough wipeing your *** now, you may have to switch wipeing hands

 

Baaah......guys do that over here every day !

 

Hang in there bro I'm sure that hand hurts like a SOB. Sometimes you just gotta take it one second at a time till you get to see the doctor. I spent like 4 hours waiting to see a doctor at the emergency room one day in horrible pain. They put me on dilaudid as soon as I got in there thank god. Hope you get some of that stuff too. Ask for it by name!

 

Damn that ****s but the good thing is didn't ruin your at***ude. Good luck with the surgery.

 

Think of it this way: If you are ever in South America and get kidnapped by a cartel and held for ransom... when they go to cut your find off to send to family you can just yawn and tell them "Oh, how original"

Sorry to hear about your loss but good to hear your spirits are good. Best of luck
