Title: Not even close to being truck related. Not gory but!
Post by: Blazin on January 28, 2008, 10:20:55 pm
I finally got around to e mailing this pic from my phone. I did this about 2 years ago. Thought you guys might like to see the results of keeping your finger on the trigger of the nail gun!
 3&5/8" framing nail.

I had one come through a botom wall plate on a bounce and went through my right fore finger into my middle finger. That one didn't stay with me though as it was through the plate.
 If I had know this one wasn't in the bone. I would have pulled it myself. It didn't really hurt, so my thinking was it must be bad if it dosn't hurt!

I was working on a roofing crew on the local public library, and one of the legitimately more skilled workers drove a 2" roofing nail into his KNEE CAP. He pulled it out and went back to work.   :o

Ouch!  Don't show this to certain politicians, they'll ban those things--just like them limiting everything else we do.
(sorry, it is campaing season--and I am sick of it)

I shot one through my thumb on the first day I used my new gun.  It didn't hurt either - pulled it out myself.  Then threw the nail across the room, put a band aid on and went back to work.  My wife told me an hour before not to shot myself with the thing.

There was a guy and his brother or brother in law or something right up the street from my old joba few years ago who shot him in the head over a dispute. Killed him with a nail in the brain :o
