wayneone Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 I didnt think a bike chain could cut your finger off! i knew it would leave a nasty wound but take your finger off. I did somthing a little similar, for some reason i thought id squeeze my back tyre to see if it was flat whilst rolling. (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Y) The chain is pushing it against a spikey thing and pulling it away, that equals loss of finger. And Mr topic starter, did you go to the hospital? Because that'd have to be a bit on the gnarly side for you to pull it off, like bone deep sorta thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RicH_87 Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 trying to get a lockring off an acs on the glen once, the allen key slipped and i impailed my finger on one of the teeth. Deep as fook, bleeding everywhere. Luckily i had an old reciept in my pocket so i bandaged it back up and put my glove ontop. :turned: Still got the scar :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
random Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 Yeah i had to go. Blood all in my workshop over my tools etc. I couldn't bend my index finger to the side as it cut a tending sao they put me under loacl and sticed it all up...scar is right where my finger bends so kinda lucky as you can;t tell really cos it folds there on the skin..lucky but was messy Disc brake cleaner hurt in open wounds but it's alchole and does get you drunk hehehe cos i felt very light headed and wawy withthe faires Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
