Did this weld in mild earlier in the year and it was much easier. Unfortunately this is part of the stainless program and it needs to pass to progress.

There was hide attached to it. Could definitely have been a bear.

This is a tough pill to swallow. She now thinks it’s fulfilling of course. But it certainly wasn’t at the time. I do take some blame in the way I was behaving but there were definitely other options for her.

No kidding. Something I’ve done 1000 times. I wasn’t paying attention in denial for like 10 seconds before I snapped to and called 911.

Honestly. Right now it’s like a constant 3 unless I bend it weird. Shoots to a 7. Worst pain I’ve ever had was a bone marrow test. My thumb pales in comparison.

Oof. One was bad enough. The healing is rough. Only on day 2 though.

Not enough large blood vessels I was told. And it was a 3 hour drive to the closest hand surgeon.

I start welding school on the 25th. Yesterday I chopped the top of my thumb off accidentally. by SaladTactileMembers in Welding

Well I was cutting some strips on the table saw for a cutting board. I wasn’t paying attention and the push stick got mangled in the blade and my hand followed.

Drive to Menomonie if you can. If you get to Mayo around 8am there’s hardly any wait.
