    Default HardCore


    I hobbled myself today...I was cutting a piece of aluminum with a grinder... The cutting wheel jumped and cut my right hand pointer finger to the bone in the first notch of my finger..tiers watch your fingers they are precious.. I'm trying to fill a couple orders with a brace on my finger... It's not easy .. But my wife said I'm hardcore and I like that.

    Revtoby Sorry to hear about your misfortune. Fingers and eyes are two things that need to be protected at all cost. Without them we are all about dead in the water. None of us like to wear heavy gloves but the safety glasses are so much better than what they use to be. I got so I wear mine when I am casting jig heads. A pair of light cotton white gloves will even help to keep your fingers from getting stabbed by the sharp sickle hook points. It also help to protect your hands from the heat of the hot molds.

    And it sounds like you are a person with a lot of tenacity. You are really HARD CORE in a good way.

    Y'all be safe now.

    Sorry to hear that, know how bad it hurts. Ran my left thumb through table saw, got it put back on but never has worked good since. Hopefully you didn't hurt tendons.
