Ouch!!!

Just watch out for the quirt of blood from the finger nail when you use the hot paper clip method. Goes a long way...

It certainly was a significant ouch!
Doesn't every motor vehicle restoration project and even home renovation chore require some form of blood letting to appease the Gods?

Well that is how it seems to work out for me!

Kind Regards

No, I don't care rick, I am not going to open up those thumbnails.
It doesn't matter how bad my curiousity is.
No drill or click of the right mouse button here!

We had an apprentice who heard us dicussing the puncture method for relieving pain and saving the nail. When he got around to mashing a finger he went straight for the Pedestal Drill and promptly drilled a 1.5mm hole right through nail AND finger. Made a bit more of a mess I can tell you. Of coursethis incident was never ever mentioned again.......

Rich,
I can't stop laughing. the same thing happened at the Paynesville Slip yard whilst I was first aid officer there. Made quite a mess, but not as much of a mess as the apprentice who chopped his hand off at the wrist using a band saw the wrong way.

Ryan,
It was a fingernail nail not a thumbnail.
