Today i crushed the end of my little finger and and the bone in the end is fully fubared into lots and lots of little bits and the skins split and the nails almost off the worst bit is the end is at a weird angle so no riding for a while.

Now the really bad bit iv'e gotta go back Monday to have it redressed and assessed and from what the doc and nurse where saying it looks like they want to take the end of the finger off so will have a little op if they try and save it (i dont want it saved it will look like shit and not work properly) it will take 3 months to heal if they remove it it will take 4 weeks to heal (id rather 4 weeks over 3 months) will get pics up monday when they take the dressing off

ps its still bleeding/leaking after 7hrs aaarrrrrrggggghhhhh :cry: :cry: :cry:
 
ow...

I once neatly severed a customers little finger clean off at the end.

I shut the boot just as she grabbed the car to steady herself.

I could see the bone.
 
I squished the end of my index finger throwing a slab of concrete into a skip, it turned out I was a lot stronger than the nice chap on the other end...who dropped it....and I can carried on throwing the concrete except it didn't quite make it into the skip, just to the edge. Ow!!! I didn't break the bone but thoroughly mashed the flesh all around the tip - it was the same width as my thumb. And also the day before I went to see the Chilis and James Brown in Hyde Park....

Those recovery periods are a little optimistic I fear, seriously consider chatting to someone who knows about having something amputated, I know it's only the tip of your finger but there's more to it than that!
 
Ross its proper fubared to get it to heal will take months and months poss op or two along the way to get it setting right thats if they can the removal is easier and better in the long run will get pics up monday

i was using a pneumatic press and my finger was just in the wrong place when my old man shouted i turned to look over my shoulder and bang finger mashed :shock: :cry: :cry:
 
got some wheels to build for my claud butler soon i can see it now spin the wheel in the jig and bang :shock: even the thought of it makes my eye's water :cry: :cry: :cry:
 
speedy recovery dan!......i once slid a patio door onto my little finger, and took the end off.....it hurt so much it didnt hurt if you know what i mean.....
