Default Irony

Well the strangest thing just happened.....

I was detailing the fingers of a cowboy that I was carving and the knife slipped. When it did I cut the fingers off the carving and despite wearing a carving glove I cut my finger.

I always wear a glove, it works best for a slice, this was a puncture and It did not help or perhaps it did? I still have my finger.

1/4" deep, guess I will live. I have already super glued the hand back on the carving and am considering using the glue on my finger to get the bleading to stop.

Live and learn.

Greg

Been there several times. I guess we need to learn to keep our fingers out of the way. But, I haven't figured that out yet. Hope it wasn't a bad cut.
