Welcome to my brain. It’s messy. It’s interesting. And it’s all connected if you stick around long enough. "Believe Nothing: no matter who said it, even if I have said it, except it agree with your own reason and common sense. Siddhartha Guatamo, the Buddha.

A minor setback

Nothing major, and nothing 10 stitches didn’t take care of, but its slowed me up some.

I was at work yesterday and while cutting some steel stock, the cutting disc came apart, whipped around and bit me. Twice.

Two deep gouges on the back of my left hand and quite a bit of bleeding but no loss of function other than the usual swelling that accompany such injuries. Did get my tetanus shot updated so thats a plus in my book. (I’ve read too many horror accounts of lockjaw and its ilk. Nooooo thankyou, I don’t wanna go down that road.)

I’ll still be doing both yak work and paying work, I will just be a touch slower about it right now as I favor my left hand some.

I did add a center deck beam and footrest to the front of the yak yesterday afternoon,

but could tell cutting tenons for the back deckbeams would be too much of an issue for my abused paw so soon. To many complicated little angles and chisel work that require both hands for control. Maybe tomorrow, may be a couple more days as things shrink back up.
