Yip -- I've read posts where others have done it and I admit, I've suffered absolutely NO jealousy or remorse that I hadn't done it.....but today is a different story!!! Yip, I cut the tip of my left middle finger almost off with the rotary cutter!!! :oops: It cut almost thru the tip and all the way thru the nail!!! I did it two nights ago...the skin on the finger is barely hanging on....noticed when redressinig that the skin is turning black. hmmmmmmmmmmmaybe I should have gone to ER!!! :twisted:

I have to admit -- I type fast - clocked at 98 wpm in my hayday.....now I am hunting and pecking and it's AWFUL!!!!!!!!! :thumbdown:

Sorry to hear that. You know them blades are always out for blood.

been there, done that.

bled quite well, i'm sure.

hope you heal quickly.

keep that finger tip protected - it will probably be more sensitive than the others.

oh no.... hope it heals fast!

OUCH!!! I'm so worried I will do that!! I try so hard to be careful!! I hope you heals fast!!

I've not cut off any part of my body, but there's always tomorrow. OUCH!

Maybe the doctor would be a good person to visit!

Ditter43 08-05-2010 07:13 AM

Oh no!!! Is the fingertip turning black because it's bruised? If not, you need to see the doctor asap!! :-(

Sounds to me that a trip to the docs would be in your best interest. Wouldn't want you to lose the finger or worse.

If it is turning black, time for the doc!
