Anyone ever chop off their finger?

[rdb123]

Just wondering if any of you have ever chopped off your finger by accident by placing it into the breach and firing....

I'm just asking because I nearly decided to put my finger in a breach and testing a Level10 without sticking in a test object first. Luckily, I decided to stick a pencil in and was shocked that it clear cut that into 3 pieces.

You can not chop off your finger by placing it in front of the bolt!!!! You can bruise you finger pretty well on the level7 bolt (did that once), but nothing will happen if you put your finger in front of the LX bolt, I've done it dozens of times already showing poeple how it works!!

Lol, well I think you mean a properly installed one.

Worst case senario: you will have a slightly bruised finger for a couple of days!!! To avoid a bigger bruise to your ego, try the setup out in private before you try to impress anyone else with it!!

've c opped o e of y fi gers wit a lx bolt. G ess w ic o e.:o



(alot of ppl fail to realize that the lx has two speeds. If your doing the finger test, you need to have your finger resting on the foamie, not on the other side of the breech, it will be hit HARD there)

my friend had a few of his fingers routed off in a woodshop accident, pretty cool. since he doesnt have any fingernails there he just balances coins and pencils on his fingertips.

This is from another post "Sticking finger in LX" that I replied to:


When assembling the bolt, test with something else like a straight shot sqeagee(sp). When everything is fine, you can use your finger. The valve does work, just remember safety first.

I forgot to do a test fire first and ended almost chopping my finger. What happened is that I assembled the valve and gassed it up. I stuck my finger in and fired. I heard a pop and the sound of a large leak. I thought to myself and thought, "this isn't right". So I took out my finger and saw blood. Now I new something was wrong. Well I ran to the bathroom to stop the bleeding. After I got the bleeding to stop, I inspected the cut and noticed that it was deep. SO, off to the ER. I took a quick look at the area I was working at and noticed the powertube top off to the side. Now I new what happened, it went full force. Luckily that the foamie wasn't attached, it could have been worse. That was 1.5 months ago. It healed but left a scar. During that time, the tip of my finger felt wierd with no feeling. All is fine now but it feels like there is a small bulge where it sliced through.

Remember: SAFETY FIRST!

Wish I had a digi cam to show you all, but i'm saving up for a x-mag. I forgot to say that I also injured my nerve. That took the longest to heal.
