muddyjlx:
drilled both wrists.
was holding the body while drilling a hole, straight through the steel and into my wrist.
Being a stupid twit i then did it to the other wrist 5 mins later.
Disco_Al:
whilst welding the exhaust on my old mini (still attached to the car!)(up-side-down welding not to be recomended!) a stray bit of slag fell on my forehead.
dropped SJ 413 engine on my hand while trying to swear it into the box...

Yep :lol: Done that & had it stuck to the palm & left nice little vent hole marking for a few weeks, except mine twisted round on a stiff flex, so I picked it up by the metal

Broken nose, belted by a junkie at work, still waiting for him to be brought back in for some reason :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
(I'll make sure I'm not left alone with him, so he can't accuse me of anything, but if he does start..............)
barmiebrumie:
20 stiches in the palm of my left hand, while drilling spot welds out of a door aperture on a tressle in slipped & whats the first thing you do when something drop's ---
Yes try to catch it, not reccomended when the drill is still going round :oops: , ended up three weeks later haveing plastic surgey on the hans due to middle finger turning blue & staying in the upright position :shock: , funny now but had to sign before the op as they might of needed to amputate bits or open up my lege to take some string bits to repair the hand,
Now left with a nice ''zorrow shaped scar
Oh lots of weld burns & other nasty cuts you get when you are a panel beater.
