Well, most cuts and bleeding are stopped with what ever shop rag I can find within reach and wrap and hold tightly until the bleeding slows enough that I can get back to work without leaving a trail of blood drops.

Only drilled my hand once, had to lie down until I felt good enough to get in the car and go to the hospital, but once there I re-thought it and went back home and let Dr. Mom (wife) take care of it for me.

While working under the dash once with the windshiled post, wiring and duct work, I had to work my hand in some goofy angle, upsidedown, and backwards to get my finger tips on a bolt, and for a brief moment with a little bit of sweat and anxiety building up discovered my hand was stuck. With my mind racing on what to do, and how to get it out, whether or not to call for help (not sure what they would do) or just set there until someone came looking for me, but then suddenly I untwisted just right and it slid back out. Of course I had to slide it back in to finish tightening the nut.

Of course we are having fun.......its just all depends on how you define fun.
