Once I told my bride "I don't see you you can be so beautiful and so stupid at the same time!

She said "that's easy - God made me beatiful so you would be attracted to me. God made me stupid so I would be attracted to you!":grin:








Old joke....
 
Stick...
If you turned that cut exactly 90 degrees it would look exactly like mine did last July 4th.
A wood chisel (that I had just sharpened) was the culprit.
I drove around for 2 hours looking for a clinic that was open.
Sewing it up only took 20 minutes.
The worst part was the Betadine that the doctor poured in the cut.....YeeeeOhhhhhWeeeeeee!!!

I carry a bottle of isopropal alcohol on my truck for just these kinds of wounds. I think I had a day about six years ago were I didn't cut a hand or finger some place. That sure looks like it hurts. Thanx for info on Anti-bacterial electrical tape. My wife is a dietician and I might be able to sell her on that one!
 
tie wrap cuts

tie wrap cuts

Reaching into a controller or similar where the wires have been bundles with plastic ty wraps. The snipped ends are like razor blades. A helper I had cut himself so bad on the back of the hand he needed 8 stitches _ from an Ideal ty-25 !!!

I recommend rolling all ends to the back of the panel !

These kind of injuries are kind of expensive. The biohazard kit you have to use to clean up the blood is like $100 a pop.

not sure what his wife's response would be, mine would probably give me more scars to be admired....
 
About the sharp ty wraps...If you twis the "waste" part of with your Kliens,they leave a clean end, and injury free environment!
 
Same hand opposite side of palm. Sprint would not let me make a 911 call in roaming mode because my bill was due. Two hours driving from fiber hut to hospital. To find out there was a county clinic 7 miles from the fiber hut.

Better yet, use either the tool that is made specifically for the purpose, or use an electronic flush cutter. This is a tool that is ground on one side only.

On a different note, in the engineering drawings that i have produced, i have always written the note that tie wraps must be installed with the manufacturers tool. (I have scars from the days i worked in control panels where the installers didn't use the proper tool).
 
I bleed everyday, but a few years ago I cut my left index finger while striping a cable for a motor on a conveyor. looked at it said I might need a couple of stitches here...went to the bosses office said I might need a ride to the ER, showed him my hand and he almost passed out...turned a ghostly white and called the plant nurse...five hours of surgery and wallah finger works again....oh and my wife makes sure we have a good supply of medical stuff on hand only cut myself twice today.
