The apples are probably down to the cores or less by now. They were happily tearing into them when I locked up. Right now they have a light that comes on from 4pm to 7:30pm training the youngest birds to go in at night. I swear those bantams think it's party time when the lights come on.
Absolutely no movie of me hammering my thumb..but here is a picture of the end result.
You'd think that after the first hit, I'd learn to aim better......
As for the lemon water. I sneak in a bit of Stevia myself, LOL.
Ouch!!Coming from a bluestone quarrying family I've always told newbies (heard it from dad) your not a true quarryman until you've lost a nail off both hands. They laugh, not me I'm careful, then 'you jinxed me!!' Lol!
Actually the worst I've had didn't come from the quarry. Had a car that would shock me every time I got out so was in the habit of shuting the door from the inside handle. Caught two fingers once so bad it took a few seconds to realize I had to open the door to get my fingers out.
Yours doesn't look too bad but I bet it hurt... Might not loose the nail. When they're completely black you loose them, and only way to relieve the pain is to poke a hole in it to relieve the pressure. I tried torching a metal nail then melting through, not good. Tiny drill bit, first nail did perfect stopped just before breaking through then picked the rest of the way with a needle, squirt blood instant relief. Second nail with the drill broke through and went just a little too far, wow did that hurt...
I still have one fingernail that has never completely reattached.
. I was using a can opener once and it didn't completely cut the top off. Like a jerk I tried to twist it off and cut up the whole palm of my hand. Looked at it till I was ready to pass out and then decided to run some cool water over it. It stopped bleeding pretty quick so then bandaged it.
