worst bodily sacrifices for systems

[jacko 10+ year member]

How many people have spilled blood for their system? Just today I gained 2 blisters and 2 deep cuts with a dremel(I cant feel the tops of 2 of my fingers anymore). What's happened to me before isn't all that bad, but how many other people have had similair or worse things happened for the sake of their system?

yeah, Ive Been bitten a few times when i was hooking up positive leads to the battery, and the wrench accidently slipped and hit a piece of metal in the engine compartment, also have sanded a few layers of skin off while sanding on a box, and my personal favorite, was d@mn near cutting my finger off with an exacto kinfe while carpeting a box. ****sighs***** the things we will put ourselves through for out systems.

I stapled the palm of my hand with a shop stapler and I have small nerve damage in my ring finger.

-7 fingers with cuts from 1 install(**** ford for not rounding off more of their body/frame pieces!).

-Battery acid splashed all over my upper body after my elbow completed a circuit from the battery to the frame of my last truck, exploding the battery. That was a fun next few minutes. Now I keep a rubber mat over any battery I'm working near.

ouch ouch ouch. did it hurt?

Not at first. I was mostly wondering where the gunshot came from(battery exploded, cracked the casedown the side). Once I started rinsing it off, some of it started a nasty burn. cleared up in a week.

I didn't know eDead was that dangerous! I guess its another reason to go with SS damplifier.

Split my nose open doing an install.

My forearm is sliced all the way up and down from trying to snake wire through a firewall the other day.

I've got tons of cuts from installing. Oh well.

Carlton Price (Thunder9500 on here) cut off a few fingers building a box.
