    ok so it was a great day until i decide i want to wrap my armrests in my daily with the left over suede i have thats when it went down hill the armrest was held into the door panel by these plastic rivets that melted the door panel to armrest so to get to the point you have to cut the plastic rivets off with a razorblade so it slipped and i spent 2 hours in the er gettin stitches but i still came home and finished the door panel with one hand lmao !

    dude that's what happened to me i was changing the blade and i had the lock twisted to get the blade out and i shook the saw cause the blade was hot so when i did i accidentally hit the trigger. the saw i was using didn't have the guard on it so my index finger went up into the saw and i had to run the saw to get my finger out !!! took the tip of my index off finger nail and all 7 stitches thru the finger nail to get it back on

    hahahaha.. yeah.. i was cutting off my muffler when i did it and all of a sudden my finger felt my finger feel mushy until i saw it i actually started feeling pain.. it's weird how the brain works.. another classic is slashing your fingers while stripping wires with an exacto knife or blade.. ouch..

    reminds me back when i was a kid workin on lil model cars. i was workin on this 64 impala n when i was cutting out the taillights, the plastic wouldnt come off! so i picked it n with the other hand shoved the exacto knife thru the plastic...only thing was it went halfway through my middle finger right next to that lasst crease before the tip.. THAT **** NEEDED STITCHES but i was so worried about gettin yelled at, i jus went n wrapped it up with a ****load of cloth n all that crap, i swear i could see all the inside of my finger

    The door panels look good. I'm happy I've never cut off a finger accidentally or had to get stitches working on mine. Your hand looked painful!!!
