CMB Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 After a nice dry morning planting 60 shrubs followed by covering of woodchips, the rain came. Hasn't let up since 11am. . During the afternoon I stuck my right nose picking finger in the oscilating blades of a hedgetrimmer Forgive my ignorance tris but what is a nose picking finger?

Deere-est Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 My index finger, on my right hand. Missed the handle on the Echo hedgetrimmer when trimming the side of a hedge and caught in the blade which is similar in working to combine cutter bar or sickle bar mower. Luckily I wasn't fully revving but I was awfully close to losing the finger. Tracis Dad is a trained first aider and patched me up a treat but it isn't pretty, nasty slice job.

Ah yes gotta be careful with them reciprocating blades. (When you said nose picking finger I thought it was some sort of back hoe implement, I've been caught out here before ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever next? What with dropping hammers etc on your foot and now trying to amputate a finger you really should wear armour when handling tools - steel gauntlets and footwear at least. Hope the finger gets better soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a prat though! Tris, I do believe you are an accident waiting to happen! At least you are the object of your accidents unlike a friend of mine whose accidents tend to happen to innocent bystanders! You MUST take more care though we can't have you ending up armless!
