****BE SAFE**** i had a piece of 12.7 sever the tendon in my thumb...the orthopedic doc has to go find my tendon that retracted somewhere into my palm, reconnect it, and stitch me back up... bottom line: don't fucking cut yourself

your pain.......
About 4 or 5 years ago,i got seven stitches all the way around the first joint of my right index finger- the bone was crushed and the tendon mangled-I went back to my shop that night and blew glass one handed(no shit)-it took a while to get full use of the digit back-but i got it -I hope You are as fortunate as i was...!
Good luck...!

Ouch!! Hope you a speedy recovery. Take it easy man.

ouch!
I had the same yhing happen in the same damn spot. The doctors are amazing these days, 5 months after the surgery I was up working again, and 9 months it was 100% back to normal......do the physical therapy, its crucial.

Tough luck
That's a shitty deal, bro. I hope you recover quickly. I had 2nd and 3rd degree burns on my right hand a few months ago. I was out at my torch a few hours after it happened, and I'm nowhere near as good as you. I'm sure you'll be back to the torch in no time.

-Peace Love
