I forgot about that stuff. We use to use at the boweling alley. Applying it to a broken blister really woke you up. I will have to get Karen to look around for it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Fowle" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, February 24, 2009 1:59 PM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] not giving cuts the finger
when I worked in the violin shop many years ago, I'd occasionally get nicked by a chisel or the like when doing fine trim work. There was just no way to keep track of where i was cutting than to keep a finger from the other hand "in the way". I never get so casual with p[ower tools. I used to use a product called "New Skin" instead of bandaids, I don't know if it's still available, and have no idea if it's actually safe, but it's probably some kind of plastic dissolved in alcohol with a brush applicator in the top of a small bottle. It burns like H--- when it hits the open cut, but then you know you've applied it where it s needed. If applied over and around the cut pretty well, it forms a coating that keeps the cut closed and clean, assuming you wash first, for maybea day. At least you don't have a messy bandaid comming off and getting caught up in things. tom Fowle ------------------------------------ Send any questions regarding list management to: [email protected] To listen to the show archives go to link http://www.acbradio.org/pweb/index.php?module=pagemaster&PAGE_user_op=view_page&PAGE_id=33&MMN_position=47:29 Or ftp://ftp.acbradio.org/acbradio-archives/handyman/ The Pod Cast address for the Blind Handy Man Show is. http://www.acbradio.org/news/xml/podcast.php?pgm=saturday Visit The Blind Handy Man Files Page To Review Contributions From Various List Members At The Following address: http://www.jaws-users.com/JAWS/handyman/ Visit the archives page at the following address http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ If you would like to join the JAWS Users List, then visit the following address for more information: http://www.jaws-users.com/ For a complete list of email commands pertaining to the Blind Handy Man list just send a blank message to: [email protected]!
