chisel+hand =

Post by speed »

few months ago i was fitting a lock in a doctors, it was a 5 lever and id just drilled out and needed to remove the corners

our comes my freshly sharpened 1/4" marples,tap tap tap one corner done,
went to go for the other corner and lost my ballance. i managed to grab the door with my left hand to steady myself but my right hand kept going, chisel thru my left hand and into the door, ouch

i jumped up thinking id just knicked it, wasent even bleeding until i turned my hand over. the nurse bandaged me up i hooverd the job and drove my self to hospital for a few stitches.

not a good pic as it was done on webcam
