breh those gloves they have are awesome. I've busted so many fewer knuckles after I got a pair.

So much easier than going inside to wash it out and bandage it up and then this time bringing big boy gloves until I need dexterity again, wondering how long until the bandage slips back off.

Was it infection? Doesn't seem very easy to get four fingers off (or even one) with a sawzall. Circular saw or something like that sure.

Seems like it works.

If that's your hand, clean your fucking nails faggot. Highly doubt you have a GF when your hands look like those of a bum.
>>
>>17884371
Do gfs paint their nails and grow them long just so that they don't have to clean them?

That seems like the sort of devious thing they'd get up to.
>>
>>17884371
Ask me how I know you've never so much as opened the hood on a car in your life.
>>
>>17884384
I know that your hands get dirty, that's not an excuse. At least I'm not a bitter virgin, kid.

sprocket tooth punctured through the side of my nail and through most of my finger, thankfully missing bone. Ended up with no nail, big square hole on the top and a bruise on the bottow where the sprocket didnt quite go through.

Still trying to figure out why i thought doing that was a good idea at the time.

I think needing to run to the emergency room to go get stitches in the middle of exhaust work is a good reason to not have clean hands or nails.
>>
>>17884356
tripped and fell on the blade
>>
>>17884403
So you can let it get infected? Sounds like a third-world tier doctor to me, that's not smart.
>>
>>17884407
Jesus.

Thanks for sharing mate.

>>17884417
you're very welcome

>>17884413
Do you see the part on his finger where they cleaned it?
>>
>>17884429
No
>>
>>17884429
It's as dirty as the rest of his hand, I've no clue what you're talking about
>>
>>17884436
It literally isn't though

>I can see bone and fat hanging out

Adding literally to something like a teenager doesn't make you right, especially when you're blatantly wrong
>>
>>17884499
Umm yes it does sweetie ;^)
>>
>>17884499
You're actually retarded enough to think that a hospital won't clean the area around a wound before treating it?
>>
>>17884515
Judging from the picture, yes. It's clearly dirty you fucking mongrel.
>>
>>17884520
So yeah, you are retarded.

Good to know, we can disregard every post you make.
>>
>>17884526
Absolutely bait, look at the picture you double nigger.
>>
>>17884294
Shit, that's rough anon.

I sure hope you have a necklace with your preserved fingers on it, would be metal as fuck.
>>
>>17884545
Bait because you're wholly ignorant on medical procedure?

You don't scrub around a serious wound like that, it risks worsening the injury and will cause undue pain, which in turn risks the patient reflexively moving and worsening the injury.
>>
Guys stop being racist he's just Indian.
>>
So... Just sayin

Super glue is as good as stitches for anywhere you don't care about having a scar, and scars are manly.

As it dries it sucks the oxygen out of the air around it. It cauterizes the wound a bit, you just hold the skin together on the top, let it dry and enclose the wound inside you.

Like stitches, only a hell of a lot cheaper and quicker
>>
>>17884189
This.

>Getting your hands dirty for days and staining everything

gross
>>
>>17884407

I don't get it.

Sawzall blades.... Just don't work like that.

Was it running? How did you trip sawing off a muffler? Was the car on a lift?

There's no way a sawzall made it through bone on 4 fingers not on, and there's no way you fucking sawed your fingers off as you tripped.

Geez dude do I need to reenact this shit for you? Why don't you give it a try and see what happens
>>
>>17884889
You deserved it dumbfuck
>>
>>17884808
You want to avoid scars on your fingers. Scar tissue isn't as flexible as normal skin and you'll lose dexterity.

You also don't want to completely seal deep wounds, because they need to drain unless you want serious infections.
>>
>>17884931
>not wanting serious infections

I did this to myself in november, changing my track bar. Had my hand inside the wheel well turning a wrench with an extension and slipped, scraped it on plastic. Wasn't even super painful or deep but it was wide and ragged and it's still visible.
>>
>>17884889
I really still have a problem visualizing it. Like, this is /o/ we've used sawzalls. I'm imagining cutting someone's fingers off on purpose with one and even that would be hard to do. You must have literally landed with one hand pulling the trigger and the whole thing rotated perfectly blade up and your other hand landing directly on the blade with all your weight.

Fuck you. There's nothing like the feeling when you get out the 4' length of sched. 40 pipe on your wrench and pull it gently until it goes

Or when you slip it on your wrench to get off the axle nut and it goes nowhere as you play monkey bars on it
