BE SAFE!! or fuck your hand up...

[Charred]

alright here's the story...
thought i'd make my own dwc system being the DIY kinda guy i am. All was going great and thought i'd done well and saved myself some good $$. so with all the supplies in hand i went to work
then disaster struck!
as i was cutting the holes in the top of my lid, my blade broke and i slipped and sliced my hand open
blood spilling out on the floor and all over my shit i had to jump up n get some pressure on it STAT.
once i'd done that it was time to call a doctor and get in on an imergency consult. i then drove 1 handed to my doctors where i was pinged 180$ for stitching up my hand as well as a tetnis shot! there goes all my saved $... and a little more

anyways i guess the point of the story is always be safe and when working with sharp shit, try not to be blazed off your head... i know it's hard. but sooner or later you'll end up paying out of your ass for it!
doc said i was less than 1cm of hitting a major nerve too...

here's the crap that caused it all

Awwww poor guy...lol I though you typed you had to get a tetris shot.

Next time you wanna make a hole, get one of these. You get a perfect hole everytime.

 

[Tongbokes]

Yeah the hole drill bit prolly was to small for his job , i would recommend using scissors . ya got control of them . Good Luck bro " I bled for Days "

 

[BongJuice]

I have a hole saw set. It contains 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 inch hole saws. For his set up a 4 inch or a 6 inch saw would of worked.

 

[Tongbokes]

Scissors are cheap , and less mess to clean up

tin snips would have made easy work of that ,,,

 

[Tongbokes]

never thought about Tin snips ..... ya can even get them in red or green handle for left or right handed cuts ... Great idea Vette

 

[Charred]

yeh didn't really think it through... ha thats what you get. will def invest in some tin snips now though.

hey bongjuice does that hole thing work on wood too? if so where could i pick one of those up?
cheers

 

[Tongbokes]

They have those sets for Wood yes ... just check Home Depot or Lowes ect any hardware store will have them Good Luck

Jesus, Charred.. BE CAREFUL! We've got a neighbor, a real asshole I love calling Lefty. Wanna know why I call him Lefty? Because, he can make the hang loose hand sign by just holding that left hand up. Wanna know why? Sure you do.. because, old fucker was drunk using his circular saw (I think it may have been a table saw), drunk as fuck, and just sliced two of those puppies right off.

Asshole... Mahalo!

(He never gets it when I quip Mahalo to him, though he doesn't always hear me, his friends tried to steal our dog, so I hate them all and no longer speak with them.)

Yeah, it's like this, but he has his forefinger for some reason...

 

[MEANGREEN69]

[harleyd13]

[dylster88]

[Tongbokes]

Hey even Edward Scissorhands cut himself now and then ...

 

[shrubsmokes]

$180 damn your dr. kicks ass or hes not a real dr. here some stiches and a shot would be more liek $500 - $800

 

[bigd921]

get a dremel rotary tool...makes quick work cutting plastic wood etc...also has a sanding attachment so you can smooth off the rough edges

Your so right Korv. I use the ones with the yellow handles they cut both ways. Wiss Snips.
