Dude that sounds painfull. Did you just wound your hand or did you maim it?

[Mclaren]

yep, was very pain-full. it is maimed. lost one knuckle, 3 tendons, have a pin from my wrist to the tip of my middle finger.

only time will tell if will have much use of it after the cast comes off

[Tribble]

Wow - that sounds a lot worse than you first mentioned. Hope you do get use back in your hand.
