I see this & just turn cold.
I often think how bad this could go if something goes wrong.
I don't need to get on a soap box, but
I'm sure I'll be more careful.
Glad to see the outcome looks good.

Cut resistant carving gloves are not very expensive.

Thanks for all the well wishes guys . Naturally people would think that i did it carving but thats not what happened , like most of
you guys I'm constantly using chainsaws ,grinders and chisels etc and have always been totally safety crazy as im pretty attached
to my hands and eyes but this was one of those F#$k why did i do that moments. I'm sure you know what I mean when your reflexes
take over and in this case I grabbed onto a sheet of corragated iron sheet'n and you can see the result . Cheers again and as Arnie said
I'LL BE BACK

Sorry to hear about the accident. A good time for pause and reflection - and to get healed up. You do beautiful carvings, hopefully you'll be back at it before very long.

OUCH!
Hand injuries suck!
Hopefully your hand therapist will be as good as the one I had, just take it easy and try not to rush it. Ripping stitches out of your fingers on accident hurts.
Cheers.
