Haven't cut myself too badly on the job in a long time, but apparently sitting in the living room cutting a cardboard cutout #1 for my young daughters 1st birthday is hazardous too...

I would agree. I made it 35 years without stitches or a broken bone but i reluctantly decided I needed some stitches in this.

I got a cut just like that 3 years ago on the dome of an Air Vent power fan.

DAMN, they make those things sharp-and for what reason ?- what would it cost? 3 cents to roll that lower edge over ?

you guys who won't make a cut back towards yourself wouldn't make it in the floral trade.

when my wife was a florist they made hundreds of cuts each day-everyone was a one handed cut with the blade pulled backwards and the thumb used as a stop.

Mine was a careless grinder cut through a glove. Could of been worse:rolleyes:
 
I always admire a guy who in the midst of personal injury has the whereabouts to snap a pic for his buddies..


The most gruesome one I seen was a razor blade which fell out of a roofers pouch and landed on my coworkers calf flaying it open about 6 inches..
 
I caught a bunch of crap for not taking a pic of my hand before they closed it up. Two arteries and my flexor tendon were cut..... lol
