bugger well that's the cleanest word I can use!!!! unhooking the van today and a car pulled up next to me that took my attention away from what I was doing. Result, the weight distribution hitch came crashing down on my toe art guy bugger and many more expletives!!!! Anyway I have released the pressure and the blood ran free and I am left hobbling around ah the life on the road.

Apart from the black bit, it's a good looking toe, a lot younger than my toe does. Sorry. What did you use to release the pressure, once a Dr used a paper clip heated up with a lighter to reduce pressure from a son's finger he'd jammed in a door.

When it happened to me on a finger many, many years ago, the doctor drilled a hole in the top of the nail to release the pressure.
OMG the pain when I squashed it, in a collar cutter at a shirt factory. I went out cold.

That was very smart C1. I am more worried about little C3, hope she was not near by and you didn't teach her some bad words.

Also hope C2 was not close by but sure she assisted in your moment of pain.

Keep Safe out there (this time)

PS: A red hot neddle can do wonders OR a 1mm drill in your 18v cordless.biggrinbiggrinbiggrinbiggrin

Hey Jim are you saying that a drill less than 18v won't be strong enough to drill through C1s toe nail ?
