I win at nailguns

I totally shot myself in the finger with a nailgun about an hour ago, while I was helping my dad build Leviathans' new vivarium. I had a two inch long staple going in through the bottom of my finger and out through the fingernail. My dad pulled it out with a pair of pliars, and I'm going to put it on a necklace.

Also, you have no idea how hard it is to type without the use of your left pointer finger.


Do I win a prize?
 
I don't feel so all alone in the nailgun category any more.... I had a 2.5" trim staple hit a knot and deflect into my knee right behind the knee cap. Man was that fun!!! :grin01:

I have a particularly diligent wart.. or as my doctor says, 4 warts clustered together, on the tip of my middle finger. My doctor treated it the other day and it REALLY hurt to type. I attempted to type without the use of my middle finger for awhile... not too fun!
I'm assuming the pointer finger would be worse, especially for those who are lazy like me and use it for more letters than i should!

Hey, I type right-handed-only all the time, when I have a snake out! Choco doesn't mind all the bouncing, but the others are too flighty for that.

Seriously, make sure you haven't broken the bone in the end of your finger- that's just the sort of thing that would do it, and also, have you had a recent tetanus shot? Puncture woulds get infected easily.

I used to shoe horses for a living. I broke my thumb by hitting it as hard as I could with a hammer (not on purpose, was trying to get the nail to turn out and it wasn't cooperating...)
